1916-D Lincoln Cent. MS-66 BN (PCGS). A satiny Gem with vivid underlying mint color in pinkish-apricot to otherwise warmly toned, olive-brown surfaces. Minor striking softness is noted for the reverse, the result of a worn die. Common only in the lowest circulated grades, the 1916-D is scarce even at the EF and AU levels. In Mint State this is a key date issue in the early Lincoln cent series, the present example undeniably rare and ranking among the finest known to PCGS in the BN category. PCGS# 2489. NGC ID: 22BP. PCGS Population: 2; 2 finer in this category (MS-67 BN finest).
