The 1910-S Lincoln Cent in Red (RD) designation is a highly sought-after early San Francisco Mint issue from the Lincoln Wheat cent series. Struck in 1910 at the San Francisco Mint, this coin features the iconic Abraham Lincoln obverse design by Victor David Brenner and the classic wheat ears reverse.
With a mintage of just 6,045,000 pieces, the 1910-S is significantly scarcer than its Philadelphia counterpart. Examples graded with a Red (RD) designation are particularly rare and desirable, as most surviving specimens have toned to varying shades of brown over the past century. The RD designation indicates that the coin retains at least 95% of its original mint red color, creating a stunning visual appeal that collectors prize.
This premium example displays sharp details throughout Lincoln's portrait and the wheat stalks, with attractive surfaces that showcase the rich, vibrant red luster characteristic of the finest preserved specimens. A must-have addition for any serious Lincoln Wheat cent collection or for investors seeking historic American copper coinage with strong numismatic potential.
All coins are independently certified and guaranteed for authenticity and grade by major third-party grading services.
