Seize a rare piece of World War II history today. This extraordinary complete set showcases the legendary one-year-only 1943 Steel Lincoln Cents. Elite Coin Group proudly offers them in the finest known Superb Gem Mint State 68 condition.
In 1943, severe copper shortages forced the U.S. Mint to innovate quickly. Consequently, the Mint struck Lincoln Cents from steel planchets with a zinc coating. Although this change lasted only one year, it marked a historic shift. However, steel corrodes easily and rapidly. Therefore, very few coins survived in pristine condition. As a result, top-grade examples remain extremely rare today.
Moreover, this complete three-coin set includes all 1943 mint issues:
Because of these limited populations, only 238 complete MS68 sets can ever be assembled. Thus, this set stands among the scarcest high-grade Steel Cent collections available. Furthermore, no coins exist in MS69 or MS70 grades. In fact, MS68 represents the absolute highest grade possible. Additionally, only 10 sets could potentially reach MS68+ condition – and those have sold for up to $85,000.
Kenneth Bressett personally signed each coin in this Elite Coin Group set. He is the renowned numismatist and long-time editor of the “Red Book” (A Guide Book of United States Coins). Collectors widely respect him as a leading authority in American coinage. Consequently, his signature significantly boosts collectible value. Moreover, it adds authentic historical provenance.
Now is your prime opportunity to own a finest-known 1943 Steel Cent set. It offers stunning eye appeal and elite authentication. For example, advanced collectors especially appreciate its unmatched rarity, superior condition, and profound historical significance. Therefore, act today to secure this exceptional treasure.
