Lot Description

1929-S/S Lincoln Cent. FS-501 (FS-013.65). Repunched Mintmark. MS-65 RD (PCGS). Rare and difficult to locate in any grade, this full Red Gem is probably tied for Condition Census #1 for the variety. Softly frosted in texture with even rose-orange color, this coin presents expectably well for the assigned grade. A few trivial blemishes are easily overlooked, as is a bit of softness to the strike that is only really noted for the obverse. Obviously an important offering for the advanced Lincoln Cent variety collector.
