Exemplary MS66 Red 1914-D Cent

1914-D 1C MS66 Red NGC. The 1914-D is famous for its low mintage, and unlike the 1909-S VDB, few pieces were set aside in Mint State. Among those that have survived in Uncirculated condition, nearly all exhibit carbon flyspecks and mellowing of the initial pumpkin-red luster. Miraculously, the present Premium Gem has avoided any such indignities. It is bereft of the smallest spots, and the shimmering orange surfaces have nary a hint of tan toning. The right obverse field has traces of lime iridescence. Abrasions are essentially absent, and the eye appeal is formidable. A wonderful opportunity for those in search of the finest quality key date cents. Census: 5 in 66 Red, 0 finer (6/08).(Registry values: N7079)
