2002-S Lincoln Cent DCAM Gem Proof INB Graded Copper Memorial Penny
Condition: This coin is graded as Gem Proof by the International Numismatic Bureau (INB). It features a Deep Cameo (DCAM) finish, characterized by highly frosted devices that contrast sharply against mirror-like fields. The surfaces appear clean with the bright orange luster typical of a well-preserved copper-plated zinc specimen. This coin was struck at the San Francisco Mint, as indicated by the S mint mark. The metal content consists of a core of 99.2% zinc and a plating of 0.8% copper. Historically, this 2002-S issue is part of the long-running Lincoln Memorial series, which was first introduced in 1959 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth. This specific piece was produced exclusively for annual United States Mint proof sets, intended for collectors rather than general circulation. It features the classic Victor David Brenner obverse and the Frank Gasparro reverse design.
