Description
Splendid MS66 Red 1865 Fancy 5 Cent
1865 1C Fancy 5 MS66 Red PCGS. 1865 was one of the most important years in American history. The Civil War ended, Reconstruction began, and President Lincoln was assassinated. Many Premium Gem type coins from this year are prohibitively costly, if they exist at all in such a lofty grade. But the business strike 1865 cent is affordable in MS66 Red, although it is sufficiently rare that opportunities must be taken when they arrive. This is a remarkable example that boasts an exquisite strike, scintillating luster, and attractive apricot-gold surfaces. The reverse appears pristine, and the obverse is unabraded aside from nearly imperceptible contact on the cheek. Population: 10 in 66, 0 finer (4/08).From The Estate of Robert R. Rollins Collection, Part One.(Registry values: N2998)
