1917 1C MS67 Red PCGS
<B>1917 1C MS67 Red PCGS.</B></I> The 1917 Philadelphia cent is common in circulated grades, and Mint State coins grading through MS64 are readily available in all color designations. Even fully Red Gems and Premium Gems are obtainable with a little patience, but Red MS67 coins are elusive. PCGS has certified 14 such pieces, and two finer, while NGC has seen one Red MS67 and none finer.<BR> The current offering displays lustrous orange patina interspersed with blushes of lime-green. The design elements are exquisitely impressed, including excellent definition in Lincoln's beard, hair, and bow tie. The only area of minor weakness occurs in the lower right lines of the right wheat stalk. Near-pristine surfaces are virtually devoid of mentionable abrasions or spots. The Lincoln cent specialist will not want to miss out on this gorgeous coin.<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Victor D.
