Lot Title:
|
1911-S PCGS MS-65RB.
|
|
Description:
|
Utterly delightful olive-green tone drenches the obverse and even tinges the reverse in places, providing a dramatic presentation for this early San Francisco cent. Although darker than expected for a coin attributed as "red-brown", vibrancy of the patina is pivotal to the eye-appeal, since it allows for a clear view of details that are unexpectedly sharp for the issue. Lincoln's hair and lapels display considerably more detail than one might expect of an early teens cent, and the reverse is completely struck up. A small, singular cut is hidden in the upper hair curls, and perhaps a couple of trivial carbon spots might be all that bar an ever loftier grade. High quality without question!
