Magnificent MS66 Red 1914-D Cent

1914-D 1C MS66 Red NGC. The 1914-D was better struck than the Denver issues of 1911-1913, and this is an especially sharp example with crisp definition on Lincoln's beard and coat, and all lettering on both obverse and reverse. Only 1.193 million cents were struck in Denver in 1914, and it was recognized as a key issue in the Lincoln series as early as the 1930s. By that time, however, Mint State pieces were highly elusive.
In addition to its vibrant reddish-tan coloration, this lovely coin displays smooth surfaces that ensure its status as one of the most desirable survivors available to advanced specialists. The strike is razor-sharp throughout and every feature rises powerfully above the fields. An exquisite coin for the discerning Lincoln cent specialist. Census: 5 in 66 Red, 0 finer (3/08).(Registry values: N7079)
