Description

1927 1C MS67 Red NGC. This issue is fairly common in all grades, including fully Red Gem. It becomes significantly scarcer in the lofty grade of MS67 Red, as indicated in the NGC and PCGS population figures. Those services combined have certified only 49 pieces at the MS67 level with Red designation, and none finer (4/10).
The present piece reveals copper-orange patina that takes on a lighter greenish-gold cast toward the rims. The design elements are crisply impressed, and imposing luster radiates from immaculately preserved surfaces that reveal no mentionable contact marks or spots. This marvelous coin is certainly to be at the top of the list for Lincoln cent connoisseurs. Census: 18 in 67 Red, 0 finer (4/10).
Ex: Long Beach Signature (2/05), lot 5501.
