1909 Lincoln Cent (1c) OGH

Gleaming matte proof color blaze from this gem, with vibrant RD surfaces shifting from coppery orange to rose-gold at the rims and a pleasing velvety texture throughout. The strike is razor-crisp with bold definition, and the eye appeal pops under any light. A a few tiny carbon flecks is all that limits a loftier grade. Housed in a desirable PCGS OGH, this example has that fresh, original look that makes early proofs so addictive.
