Description
Dramatic MS65 Red 1926-S Cent
1926-S 1C MS65 Red ICG. The 1926-S is a well-known semikey Lincoln cent issue from the 1920s, but in the MS65 Red grade, it emerges as perhaps the single rarest date and mintmark combination of the entire series. This is a well struck example that has lovely, original red surfaces. The obverse is lighter overall, with a few trivial carbon flecks noted under a loupe. The reverse is a tad deeper in color, with cherry-red patina in the centers deepening to fuchsia at the rims.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22CL, PCGS# 2575, GSID# 1900)
