1921 Lincoln Cent (1c)
PCGS MS65 RD
The 1921 Lincoln Cent stands as a notable issue from the Roaring Twenties, representing a time when the U.S. economy was transitioning from post-WWI recession toward the boom years ahead. While not particularly rare in circulated grades, full red gems from this year are quite elusive.
This MS65RD example certified by PCGS exhibits stunning original mint red color and strong cartwheel luster. The surfaces are exceptionally clean for the grade with minimal marks. The strike is bold and crisp, showing full wheat ear definition on the reverse. The eye appeal is outstanding, with rich orange-red color that remains vibrant and fresh after over 100 years.
