1943 S 1c Lincoln Steel Wheat Cent NGC Graded MS 65 in New Holder
Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this iconic 1943 Lincoln cent represents a historic, one-year-only emergency issue produced during the height of World War II. To conserve strategic copper for military ammunition, the United States Mint temporarily altered the composition of the penny to zinc-coated steel. This specific wartime piece has been professionally authenticated and graded as MS 65 by NGC, ensuring its high-grade Mint State quality. The coin comes housed in a freshly updated, scratch-resistant modern holder from the grading service. It makes a classic addition for any collector focusing on mid-20th-century historical varieties or registry set updates.
