Snow-1 Doubled Die Obverse 1873 Cent
FS-101, MS63 Red and Brown

1873 1C Doubled LIBERTY, Closed 3 MS63 Red and Brown PCGS. Snow-1, FS-101. Along with the 1888/7, the key to a Guide Book collection of Indian cents. LIBERTY is widely die doubled (accounting for the sometimes-seen name "Doubled Liberty"), and less dramatic doubling is present on the profile and headdress feathers. This nicely struck and satiny representative features dusky orange-red and straw-gold throughout the fields, while the portrait, wreath, and legends are toned brown. Marks are essentially absent aside from a faded thin mark between the O in ONE and the C in CENT. The Snow-1 variant is a rarity in Mint State, particularly with partial and full Red color designation.(Registry values: P10)
