$2,200.00

Smooth and quite imposing in light of the difficulty normally encountered when attempting to acquire high quality examples of this type. The obverse is remarkably red for a Matte Proof Lincoln Cent, there being only traces of delicate fading at the upper periphery.

There is a wonderful harmony of iridescent gold, olive-jade, rose, and pale lavender-blue that immerses both the obverse and reverse of this memorable coin. The underlying surfaces, likewise, are absolutely lovely! |
