The Final Year of Issue – in Stunning MS66 Red condition! A True Rarity!
These final-year-of-issue Lincoln Cents from 1958 are some of the most sought after Lincoln Cents today, and that is not taking into account the fact that this pair has been certified by NGC as being in MS66 RED! In this condition, these Lincoln Cents are some of the rarest coins in the history of the Lincoln Cent series!
But don’t take our word for it – Check out the numbers for yourself!
• Total Known Philadelphia Mintage: 252,525,000 vs. Total P-Mint known in MS66 RED or better: 3,178
• That is just 1 in every 79,460 Philadelphia Mint issues! (Less than 0.002%!)
• Total Known Denver Mintage: 800,956,300 vs. Total D-Mint known in MS66 RED or better: 6,208
• That is just 1 in every 129,020 Denver Mint issues! (Less than 0.001%!)
Another way of looking at this (buying rolls from the Mint): if you purchased these coins from the U.S. Mint in rolls in 1958, it would take you purchasing over 1,500+ Philadelphia Mint rolls to get just ONE 1958-P in MS66 RED!
