Gorgeous PR66 Red 1877 Indian Cent

1877 1C PR66 Red PCGS. Like other nearby dates in the proof Indian cent series, the 1877 is scarce with fully Red surfaces and a rarity at the Gem level or above with that color. Unlike those other dates, the 1877 is associated with a wildly popular business strike rarity, and collector demand for business strike substitutes has led to strong price pressure on the proof issue, which numbers just 900 specimens. This is an outstanding example, honey-gold at the margins with deep pumpkin-orange color at the interiors. Well-preserved with elegant mirrors in the fields and great all-around eye appeal. Population: 11 in 66 Red, 2 finer (11/10).(Registry values: N7079)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 229W, PCGS# 2320, Greysheet# 1555)

Weight: 3.11 grams

Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Tin and Zinc
