1926-S Cent, MS65 Red and Brown
Major Condition Rarity

1926-S 1C MS65 Red and Brown NGC. The 1926-S Lincoln cent is a slightly better date in the series, from a limited mintage of 4.55 million coins. It is famously one of the rarest dates in Gem Red condition, and even Gem Red and Brown coins are scarce. The current coin displays a bold strike and original satin luster, with blended chestnut-brown and golden-umber hues across each side. A few minor flecks are not bothersome. Census: 34 in 65 (1 in 65+) Red and Brown, 2 finer (4/24).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22CL, PCGS# 2574, Greysheet# 1899)

Weight: 3.11 grams

Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin and Zinc
