The Finest Known Example
1909-S/S Lincoln Cent. FS-1502. S/Horizontal S. MS-67 RD (PCGS).
A highlight of this outstanding Lincoln cent collection, this phenomenal Superb Gem is the finest example of the variety certified by either major grading service. Satiny in texture with a razor sharp strike from the dies, both sides also exhibit beautiful color in a warm medium orange shade. Silky smooth surface are fully deserving of the impressive MS-67 RD grade from PCGS. One of the most popular varieties in this widely collected small cent series, the 1909-S FS-1502 is a repunched mintmark variety on which the first S was entered into the die at 90 degrees from normal with the second S entered properly. Many examples have been discovered by numismatists over the years, and Mint State coins are relatively obtainable in today's market. Most collectors, however, will have to settle for a lower grade example because the 1909-S/Horizontal S is typically offered no finer than MS-65 RD. At the very top of the Condition Census for the variety, the Superb Gem offered here is sure to have no difficulty finding its way into another leading Lincoln cent collection on the PCGS Set Registry.
