- Desirable Choice Mint State quality for this scarce and conditionally challenged Lincoln cent issue. Lustrous with a softly frosted texture, the surfaces exhibit a lovely blend of deep orange mint color and olive-brown patina. Both sides are smartly impressed and crisp. Although the 1909-S V.D.B. and 1931-S were produced in smaller numbers, the 1914-D is the rarest Lincoln cent issue (as opposed to variety or error) in Mint State. With a mintage of just 1.1 million pieces, the 1914-D seems to have slipped quietly into circulation, with most coins remaining there until worn out or lost. Relatively few Mint State examples have survived, and most extant seem to have survived purely as a matter of chance. The offered coin would be just right for an advanced collection of this perennially popular small cent series.
