2004-S Lincoln Memorial Cent – PCGS PR70RD DCAM – Proof Deep Cameo with Flag Label

Coin Overview

This listing is for a 2004-S Lincoln Memorial Cent, graded PR70RD DCAM (Proof 70, Red, Deep Cameo) by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS). Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this is a modern proof coin from the popular Lincoln Memorial series (1959-2008), and it represents the pinnacle of numismatic perfection.

The PR70RD DCAM designation is the highest possible grade a coin can achieve, meaning:

• Perfect surfaces with absolutely no post-strike imperfections, even under 5x magnification

• Full original "Red" copper color (the "RD" designation), indicating the coin has retained its pristine, bright finish without any toning or discoloration

• Maximum Deep Cameo (DCAM) contrast between the heavily frosted raised design elements and the deeply mirrored, reflective fields

This coin originates from the 2004 U.S. Mint Proof Set, of which 2,965,422 sets were sold. Additionally, this coin is housed in a PCGS holder featuring the desirable Flag Label, which can enhance its appeal to collectors who appreciate specialized packaging.
