Description

1860 1C MS67 PCGS. One only needs a rudimentary knowledge of Indian cents to come away awed by this sensational copper-nickel Indian. The combination of pristine honey-golden surfaces, strong high point detail, and scintillating luster leaves little doubt about the Superb Gem level of preservation offered here. The strike is boldly articulated for a design and metal combination that was still relatively new to the Mint at the time. An essential acquisition for the dedicated Registry Set collector, and unimprovable either numerically or, more importantly, aesthetically. Population: 8 in 67, none finer at either service (3/09).
