Add a near-perfect modern proof to your collection with this stunning 1979 S Lincoln Cent Type 2 graded PR69RD DCAM by PCGS. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this highly desirable Type 2 proof features the clear S mint mark variety, distinguished by its sharper, more defined mint mark compared to the filled Type 1 variety. Collectors actively seek the Type 2 due to its lower mintage and strong demand within modern proof sets.
This coin is graded PR69RD DCAM, indicating a Proof 69 Red example with Deep Cameo contrast. The mirrored fields are highly reflective and beautifully contrast against the frosted portrait of Abraham Lincoln. The deep black mirrors and bold strike create exceptional eye appeal, making this piece a standout example of late 20th century U.S. proof coinage. The reverse displays crisp architectural detail in the Lincoln Memorial design with strong cameo contrast throughout.
Certified by PCGS as PR69RD DCAM Type 2, this coin is in near-perfect proof condition with only microscopic imperfections consistent with the grade. The surfaces display strong deep cameo contrast with vibrant red color. The coin is securely encapsulated in an official PCGS tamper-evident holder with certification number visible on the label. The slab may show light surface marks from handling and storage, while the coin itself remains fully protected and uncirculated as issued.
