An often overlooked feature of this date, although reported by David W. Lange in his <em>Compete Guide to Lincoln Cents </em>(1996), "1952 was the only date during the 1950s in which the numeral 5 sported a short and clearly attenuated tail. Was this intentional or simply an oversight?" One of many as-yet unanswered questions that makes the pursuit of numismatics such an interesting and rewarding hobby. The stunning Superb Gem offered here showcases this issue in its best light, and with none graded finer at PCGS it is ideally suited for inclusion in a top-ranked Registry Set.
