1983 Lincoln Cent. FS-801. Doubled Die Reverse. MS-67 RD (PCGS). CAC.，A remarkably well produced and preserved example of this perennially popular variety in the modern Lincoln cent series. Vivid medium orange surfaces are fully struck with a silky smooth texture that borders on pristine. Somewhere on the order of 2,000 to 3,000 examples of this variety are known, most of which were discovered either in the area of Lewiston, Pennsylvania or in northern Florida. This error is attributed to either the Philadelphia or West Point mint, both of which facilities joined with the San Francisco Mint to produce a total of 7,752,355,600 circulation strike cents bearing the 1983 date but no mintmark. Given that the West Point Mint accounted for only 2,004,400 of these coins, the odds are strongly in favor of the Philadelphia Mint being the place of origin for the 1983 Doubled Die Obverse variety. Obtainable enough in lower grades, Superb Gems such as this are rare.，From the ESM Collection.，
