Like the 1915, this coin is genuinely rare, with 600 minted and an unknown quality sold and/or destroyed due to public dissatisfaction and World War I (also very similar to the 1915). The coin screams 'Matte' and most likely looks more similar to the day it was minted than many other coins of 'RB' and 'RD' designation, which many argue have been cleaned at one time or another. We do not believe that this coin has been cleaned; it has authentically-colored surfaces, irrespective of the color designation given by the grading service. One view of this coin's seemingly original surfaces and I can't help but think of a trip to the beach. The sandy color and heavy matte granular texture are perfectly descriptive. Like the 1915 before it, the strike is full and clean, with subtle but strong diagnostic elements. A cast of light green patina covers much of the coin, with intermittent cover of strong red on Lincoln's shoulder and various spots along the coins surface. Provenance: Ex. Dave Kelly; Ex. Looney.

The 1916 Matte Proof Lincoln cent has the lowest mintage for the entire Matte Proof
Lincoln cent series, including all non error proof Lincoln cents produced from 1909 to date.

With a total of 600 coins produced, about half of the mintage is still known to exist. It is not the scarcest Matte Proof Lincoln cent since the 1909 V.D.B. is the scarcest. However, the 1916 is the second scarcest cent in the matte proof Lincoln cent series. Additionally, it is also the scarcest one found with complete and original Red surfaces.

Most examples of this coin exist with Red Brown surfaces. This is due, mainly because the Mint at the
time, was packaging proof coins inside tissue paper which contained sulfur. Consequently, causing the coins to naturally tone over time.

Most all 1916 Matte Proof's are very well stuck and exhibit well defined and sharp characteristics. Noteworthy, many 1916 business strike cents are also very well struck and many times, they are confused with the more expensive proof coins. Therefore, authentication is highly recommended.
