288+ million minted in 1918, but relatively rare to find in circulation today.
Great save !

1917-1919 were very heavily produced years in anticipation of the doughboys return from WWI and the increase in commerce. They overused a lot of the dies (die deterioration) and some examples were produced that were blurry and worn straight out of the mint. Even though they were Mint State they looked like worn circulated coins, but red with mint luster.

Your is a decent example without extreme die deterioration.
