1931 Lincoln Cent, MS67+ Red
Tied for the Finest Certified

1931 1C MS67+ Red PCGS. CAC. Ex: Bender-Whispering Pines. While examples of the 1931 Philadelphia cent are available up through Fine condition, those that grade VF through AU are challenging. Gems are another story entirely, particularly fully Red examples in lofty grades. In MS67 Red, the level of preservation of the specimen offered here, PCGS and NGC combined have currently certified barely more than coins, and none finer (11/24).

The surfaces of the present coin are devoid of any unsightly spotting or flecks, and radiate dazzling orange-gold luster. Bold definition is noted on the design features, though Lincoln's hair and beard reveal just a hint of softness. A few trivial, barely discernible marks on Lincoln's cheek and forehead are mentioned for accuracy. A fantastic coin for the Lincoln cent collector. Population: 84 in 67 (17 in 67+) Red, 0 finer. CAC: 20 in 67, 0 finer (11/24).
