Description
Pleasing 1909 Lincoln Cent
PR65 Red and Brown
1909 1C PR65 Red and Brown PCGS. The 1909 proof cent without
the VDB initials comes from a mintage of 2,618 pieces. David Lange
(1996) writes that while this issue was initially coined with the
same matte surfaces as the 1909 VDB, it is more often found with a
satiny finish, probably the result of the dies becoming slightly
worn when striking the later impressions (p. 304). The present Gem
displays satiny characteristics. Reddish-orange patination is
imbued with traces of greenish-tan, and razor-sharp definition
shows on the design features. This piece exudes pleasing overall
eye appeal. Population: 70 in 65 Red and Brown, 23 finer
(6/09).(Registry values: N991)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22KS, PCGS# 3304, GSID# 2474)
