1926-S Lincoln Cent. MS-64 RD (PCGS). Gold Shield Holder.

1926-S Lincoln Cent. MS-64 RD (PCGS). Gold Shield Holder.，Significant full Red quality for this well known condition rarity in the early Lincoln cent series. Both sides are predominantly golden-orange in color, the obverse with intermingled rose-gray highlights that provide a somewhat bolder appearance than that of the reverse. Satiny in texture with a sharply executed strike, this coin would serve with distinction in an advanced Lincoln cent collection. The 1926-S is a low mintage affair with just 4,550,000 pieces produced. It has long been recognized as a semi to full key date issue in all grades, although the vast majority of collectors have had to settle for a worn example either due to availability or cost. Very scarce in Mint State, in the full Red category, as here, the 1926-S is a noteworthy condition rarity that is always greeted with excitement when offered through auction.，，
