1863 Indian Cent, MS67
Reflective Fields, Condition Census
Sole Finest With CAC Endorsement

1863 1C MS67 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Dayton. In the absolute sense, the 1863 is the most plentiful copper-nickel Indian cent in the series, but the Mint State population is heavily concentrated in the MS63 and MS64 grades. In MS67, the 1863 is one of the rarest copper-nickel Indian cents. PCGS and NGC each list only two coins so fine, with none in higher grades (3/21). We have previously handled two of these coins, one in 2010 (NGC certified) and the other more recently in our 2021 FUN Signature (PCGS certified). The recent PCGS coin realized $20,400, but it was not endorsed by CAC. The Dayton coin offered here is CAC'd, and is the only MS67 example of this date so distinguished. The strike is bold throughout, and the preservation is as near to flawless as the 1863 comes. But the hallmark of this coin is the eye appeal generated by semiprooflike fields and rich golden color. Arguably the single finest 1863 Indian cent certified. Population: 2 in 67, 0 finer. CAC: 1 in 67, 0 finer (3/21).
