1914-D 1C, RD MS (PCGS#2473)

November 2020 U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: Exceedingly Full Red Gem 1914-D Cent Key Date Lincoln Issue 1914-D Lincoln Cent. MS-66 RD (NGC). Here is a highly significant offering for advanced Lincoln cent enthusiasts, a remarkable full Red Gem example of the key date 1914-D issue. Vivid pinkish-rose surfaces are fully lustrous with a delightful satin to softly frosted finish. Both sides are silky smooth and the striking detail is universally sharp. Although the 1909-S V.D.B. and 1931-S were produced in smaller numbers, the 1914-D is the rarest Lincoln cent issue (as opposed to variety or error) in Mint State. With a mintage of just 1.1 million pieces, the 1914-D seems to have slipped quietly into circulation, with most coins remaining there until worn out or lost. Relatively few Mint State examples have survived, and most extant seem to have survived purely as a matter of chance. The present Gem is among the very finest certified, with just one coin ranked slightly finer by PCGS at MS-66+ RD, and none finer by NGC. Provenance: From the Larry H. Miller Collection. NGC Census: 4; 0 finer at this service. PCGS# 2473. NGC ID: 22BH. Click here for certification details from NGC.
