Lot 1542
1914-D Lincoln Cent. NGC graded MS-63 Red & Brown. Popular key date. A nice bold strike. Pop 22; 104 finer. A satiny purple-brown and blue-gray gem with a vivid display of rich faded mint color around the devices plus lovely iridescence on both sides. There is a single carbon spot below the ear and a thin toning line on the reverse. Most importantly, it is nice to see sheer boldness of strike throughout, an ideal situation for a rare 1914-D. This coin met the challenge to strike completely; the design left after the retraction of the dies is in an excellent state at the centers as well as the legends and wheat ears.
Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,000.
