1921-S Lincoln Cent. MS-65 RD (PCGS). OGH. Warm golden-orange mint color throughout, the reverse with a tinge of pale rose evident as the coin rotates under a light. This is a sharply struck and otherwise untroubled Gem, the obverse with a bit of light carbon and the reverse with an ancient fingerprint over its left third. A relatively limited mintage of 15,274,000 pieces has made the 1921-S a popular Lincoln cent with collectors since the year of issue. Though specialists in this series are well aware, the casual bidder would be surprised by the relative dearth of Gem Red examples of the 1921-S in todays market. This is a better produced, better preserved example than most that is sure to catch the eye of astute bidders, and is an opportunity not to be missed.
