1914 Proof Lincoln Cent Sells for $195K | Birmingham News

A 1914 Proof Lincoln cent just smashed auction records, selling for $195,200—shattering its own previous record set in 2008. Only 1,365 were ever made, and this one’s in near-flawless condition, looking like it just rolled off the mint over a century ago. Made during WWI, these coins were overlooked then but are now collector gold thanks to rarity and pristine preservation.
