1968-S 1C Double Struck PR65 Red ANACS
<B>1968-S 1C Lincoln Memorial Cent--Double Struck--PR65 Red ANACS.</B></I> This cent has an extremely high rim between 3 and 9 o'clock, where the proof cent wrapped around a portion of the obverse die. Both strikes appear to be uncentered broadstrikes. Like the 1972-S nickel, this is one of two proof errors in this sale and both are from the same consignor. Such pieces offer the error collector a unique challenge as individual proof coins are subjected to close inspection before packaging, and errors are extremely rare. This piece is deeply mirrored and shows mark-free surfaces with lovely sun-gold, cherry-red, and lime colors.<BR><I>From The New York Eye Appeal Collection, Part Three.</B></I><BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Victor D.
