1922 Plain, Strong Reverse. PCGS VF-20.
There is no question that the superb chocolate-brown patina is the most positive attribute. Lines in each sheaf of wheat display just enough completeness to warrant the VF grade level. Still, this...

1922 "no D" Strong Reverse. PCGS AU-53.

1922 Plain F.
A true 1922 "plain", struck off of die pair 2. This is a pleasing, glossy brown coin whose only defect is a tiny spot of verdigris smack dab on Lincoln's cheek. Simple conservation should remove the...
