Lot Title:
|
Collection of 25 proof Lincoln cents 1936 through 1942, 1950 through 1964, and including both 1960 types plus two reverse examples.
|
|
Description:
|
Amazingly, only 1939 appears to have toned to red-brown (although actually, the toning is royal ruby-red and really nice), with the rest of these proof Lincoln cents seemingly still mint red after all these years. The 1960 "small date" may be dipped, but no problems are noted anywhere else. Several early pieces will grade only PF-63/64, with the majority looking like marvelous red gems.
This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
