This 1931-S Lincoln Wheat Cent, graded PCGS MS65RD, is a stunning example of a classic piece of U.S. numismatic history. Known for its brilliant red (RD) luster, this coin showcases vibrant original color and excellent preservation, making it a standout in any collection. The MS65RD grade indicates sharp, well-defined details with minimal signs of wear, while the “RD” (Red) designation confirms its pristine, untoned copper surfaces that still retain their striking reddish hue.
The 1931-S Lincoln Wheat Cent is a key date within the Wheat Cent series, and with its low mintage, it is highly sought after by collectors. The coin’s obverse features the iconic portrait of President Abraham Lincoln, designed by Victor David Brenner, while the reverse displays the classic wheat ears design, symbolizing abundance and prosperity.
What sets this coin apart is its Rattler holder from PCGS, which is a vintage encapsulation style that dates back to the early days of professional coin grading. This makes it a highly desirable piece for collectors who appreciate both the coin's historical significance and its packaging's unique place in numismatic history.
With its exceptional grade, vibrant red color, and historic Rattler holder, the 1931-S Lincoln Wheat Cent is a rare and valuable addition for serious coin collectors and enthusiasts.

‘’I had gone to a couple of other places and they weren’t the nicest people and were trying to rip me off. The people at copper state were very knowledgeable and kind. They taught me a lot along the way too. Mike and Ivy were big helps in my situation. The place is also very organized, clean and they were professional!! I recommend you go here! I will be back!’’
‘’Very nice and pleasant experience. Mike, the owner took time to show me some very cool things!! He also spent time to educate me about things I wanted to know and answered all my silly questions too! (And there were a LOT of them!!) I am really going to enjoy this shop and look forward to returning again and again. Mike is fair, honest, respectful, and kind. What more could you ask for?’’
‘’First time visit to the shop was great! All were fun to talk with friendly to work with and outstanding to do business with. I was looking for some specific items. They went above and beyond to double check inventory not under glass. Boy, did they make my day. Not only did they find, it but they gave me the best deal in town. I will be back again! Thank you Mike! Copper State is a new spot for me now.’’
‘’Found a couple of the 2009 Formative Years” I have been looking for. Came to Copperstate Coins responding to an ad not knowing they were a coin dealer. Met with Ivy to pick up my rolls. All in the store were extremely polite not pushy helpful and I left with more than I came in for. Without a doubt greatest place to go if you’re just getting into the hobby, which I am, I will be a frequent customer. Thank you!!’’
‘’This company needs an option for more than 5 starts, how about 10!? Customer service is AMAZING , they are outstanding in every single way! Since using this company, I have had 10 or more people I referred them to, and same outcome. No doubt, zero disappointment.’’
