Lot Description

Superb Gem 1954 Lincoln Cent MS-67 RD (PCGS) 1954 Lincoln Cent. MS-67 RD (PCGS). Glowing tangerine-orange surfaces reveal deeper amber hues in select areas on this Superb Gem. The fields are silky smooth and deliver a prooflike complexion, framing impressively sharp design elements. Incredibly attractive and essentially flawless. With a generous mintage of 71,640,050 circulation strikes, the 1954 is obviously a plentiful issue in an absolute sense. With the extraordinary quality and eye appeal that it possesses, however, the present example is decidedly rare from a condition standpoint. It ranks among the very finest certified by PCGS, with none finer in any category. Surely destined for the most advanced Registry Set of Lincoln cents. PCGS Population: 9; none finer. PCGS# 2815.
