Magnificent PR67 Red 1910 Cent

1910 1C PR67 Red NGC. The early Lincoln cent dates such as 1909 (no VDB) and 1910 offer some of the best opportunities to obtain high-end matte proofs, though coins so carefully preserved as this Red Superb Gem specimen are few and far between. Gleaming almond-tan and orange-gold surfaces on both sides appear entirely free of contact, although some minor dark flecks occur on the reverse, invisible without a loupe. The surfaces show the typical fine-grained, pebbly mattelike texture expected.
The strike is much sharper than found on any circulation-strike Lincoln, with two completely separated coat lines at the neck and full articulation on Lincoln's beard and hairline. On the reverse, all of the letters of the legends are crisp, as are the wheat ears from top to bottom. Census: 2 in 67 Red, 0 finer (4/10).
