Description du lot

Warm olive-orange mint color dominates the in-hand appearance of this vivid Gem. This is a sharply struck coin, the detail actually full over virtually all design elements. A nicely preserved and visually appealing coin that would do nicely in a high quality Lincoln cent collection. A lower mintage issue by the standards of this series, the 1915-S was produced to the extent of 4,833,000 pieces. Positioned in the early part of the Lincoln series, the 1915-S suffered a high rate of attrition through circulation such that even in the lowest grades survivors are relatively scarce in numismatic circles. At the quality level offered here this issue is a significant condition rarity that represents a fleeting opportunity for the astute bidder.
