1910 Small Cents Lincoln, Wheat Ears Reverse PCGS PR-63 RB

The early matte proof Lincolns show a stunning level of detail that is the most faithful representation of the original design intended by Victor D. Brenner. Subsequent design modifications, the first in 1916, vitiated much of the design's vigor. This piece has luscious surfaces that show the original design to distinct advantage, with high, squared rims, bold coat and hair details, and a medallic quality to the strike that business impressions uniformly lack.
