Beautifully Toned 1909 Lincoln Cent, PR67 Red

1909 1C PR67 Red PCGS. This is a lavishly toned and simply beautiful proof Lincoln cent, from the very first year of this long-lived, immensely popular series. From the more common of two first-year proof types, without the designer's initials VDB engraved on the lower reverse. Intense lime-green, fire-red, and olive-steel coloration occurs in a variegated fashion over both sides. The design elements are struck with razor-sharp precision, as expected for a proof. The fine grain surfaces are amazingly clean, and virtually pristine. For pedigree purposes, a brief charcoal streak (as made) is noted directly below GO in GOD; and there are a handful of tiny flyspecks above the date. Population: 5 in 67 Red, 1 finer (6/08).
From the Estate of Robert R. Rollins Collection, Part Three.(Registry values: N2998)
