Exceedingly rare issue, where the “S” mintmark was accidentally left off the dies. Fully red with a lovely orange-peel texture and gorgeous reflectivity, this ultra gem is virtually flawless! Light purple and pink hues add to the appeal and create a fascinating allure. This piece is tied for the finest known across all services. A few rims spots are present, but normal and not overly distracting. We note a few reverse edge rail chips. – Lincoln Cent (Modern)
