General Notes: The 1912 matte proof Lincoln cent is a very scarce coin in terms of overall availability, as are all early matte proof Lincoln cents. Those who are unfamiliar with matte proofs may find it hard to distinguish these coins from their brilliant-uncirculated counterparts, though a closer look will reveal the differences. Matte proofs bear finer details, granular fields, and squared-off rims.
