1943-D Steel Cent, MS68+ CAC
Tied for Finest Steel Coin of Any Mint

1943-D 1C MS68+ PCGS. CAC. Ex: Whispering Pines. The 1943-D steel cent is often available in MS68, at least in the auction setting where such high-end coins tend to trade hands most. However, PCGS lists only six coins in this grade with a Plus designation, and none of these have appeared in our auctions before now. The Whispering Pines piece is an elite top-tier rarity. Not only is it tied for the finest steel cent of any mint at PCGS, it is within the Condition Census of Wheat cents overall at PCGS. A sharp strike and brilliant, undisturbed zinc luster produce unbridled eye appeal and technical quality. Population: 6 in 68+, 0 finer. CAC: 42 in 68, 0 finer (11/24).(Registry values: N991)
From The Whispering Pines Collection.
