Lincoln Cents
1909-S 1C MS67 Red PCGS. Far more scarce in high grade than the S-VDB is the 1909-S Lincoln cent, which is a major rarity in Superb Gem Red condition. The present coin is one of only 18 pieces in MS67 Red, where it is tied for the finest certified. By contrast, PCGS reports 30 1909-S VDB coins in this grade (11/16). The strike is sharp throughout, and the frosty surfaces yield warm golden-tan luster. There are no distracting abrasions or spots. The 1909-S Lincoln cent is among the little publicized but challenging condition rarities in the series. The Registry Set collector should not let this top-grade example go by.
