1928 Lincoln Cent. MS-67+ RD (PCGS). CAC. A magnificent survivor struck on the cusp of the Great Depression. The surfaces are blanketed in uniform satin luster and glow intensely under a light source. Warm tangerine color accents the obverse while the reverse shows cooler pinkish and sandy hues. The strike is razor sharp from the centers to the rims and the surfaces are fully untroubled beneath a glass. An exceptional piece in every respect and tied with the very finest seen by CAC. Just a single example has been graded finer by PCGS, making this ideal for an advanced Registry Set. <p>While 134,116,000 Lincoln cents were struck in Philadelphia in 1928, just about 10% are thought to survive and only about 5,000 show full Red luster. Within this group, most are in grades of MS-65 RD and lower. At the Superb MS-67 RD level, this issue becomes a considerable rarity.
