Notes:
"1912-P is strictly a Type coin,
being one of the late date, high mintage Philadelphia issues. Decent coins
should always be available, at least though MS 65. Superb Gems (MS 66 and
higher) are not that numerous."1
The finest Uncirculated examples
graded by PCGS are 9 MS-66's.
The finest Proof example graded by PCGS is a single PR-68.
The finest Proof Cameo example
graded by PCGS is a single PRCA-68.
