1940-D Lincoln Wheat Cent ICG MS64 RB
This 1940-D Lincoln Wheat Cent is professionally graded by ICG as MS64 Red Brown. Struck at the Denver Mint, this copper coin exhibits the high-quality standards typical of an uncirculated Mint State specimen. The coin is encapsulated in an ICG hard plastic slab, which provides excellent protection and preservation for its surface condition. The Red Brown designation indicates that the coin retains a significant amount of its original mint luster mixed with light toning, characteristic of early copper issues of this era. This piece is a classic example of a mid-century wheat penny, representing the Denver Mint output during a pivotal year in American coinage history.
