Lot 3168 1953 1C MS67 Red PCGS. CAC. Rich, peach-orange color glows
evenly across both sides of this spot-free and attractive Superb
Gem cent. Even a strong lens fails to locate any marks needing
mention. Lincoln's beard characteristically lacks definition on the
1953, but the strike is sharp overall. CAC endorsement is
especially meaningful among the MS67-graded examples, since neither
service reports a numerically finer coin. Population: 18 in 67 Red,
0 finer. CAC: 5 in 67, 0 finer (1/17).( Registry values : N991) Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22F9 , PCGS# 2806 ) Weight: 3.11 grams Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin and Zinc
