Lot Description

1928-S Lincoln Cent. FS-501. Large S. MS-65 RB (PCGS). Pretty rose and emerald iridescence highlight classic golden-orange patina on this well-preserved near Gem. In regards to the variety, the popular Cherrypicker's Guide states the "large, trumpet-style S mintmark is very scarce and highly collectible." At this level preservation, however, the issue is conditionally rare on it's own. A true prize for the dedicated Lincoln Cent specialist. PCGS# 37707. NGC ID: 22CT. PCGS Population: 1; none finer (in this category)
