Description
2009 1 Cent First Day Issue NGC Graded MS 66 in Excellent Condition, See Photos. This 2009 Lincoln Bicentennial Professional Life Cent is a significant modern rarity, graded MS 66 RD (Mint State 66 Red) by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC). This coin is the third of four reverse designs released in 2009 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birth, specifically highlighting his years in Illinois as a lawyer and state legislator. The "First Day of Issue" designation on the label indicates it was submitted for grading within the first 24 hours of its official release, making it a highly desirable "pedigree" for Lincoln Cent specialists. With its vibrant, original red luster and sharp strike, this coin represents an elite tier of preservation for the series.
