Description
1865 Fancy 5 Cent, MS66 Red
Tied for the Finest Certified
1865 1C Fancy 5 MS66 Red PCGS. The Fancy 5 1865 Indian cent
is more plentiful than its Plain 5 counterpart, but high-grade
examples are nonetheless rare. This Red Premium Gem is among the
finest seen by either leading certification service. Fine
metal-flow lines in the obverse fields denote a late die state, but
the sharpness of Liberty's portrait and the headdress feathers is
largely unaffected. The wreath is sharp on the oak leaves but
slightly soft on the bow. There are no bothersome abrasions. A few
trivial flecks do not detract from the radiant surfaces, which show
bronze-gold in the margins and coppery-red in the centers.
Population: 11 in 66 Red, 0 finer (10/15).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 227N, PCGS# 2084, Greysheet# 1301)
Weight: 3.11 grams
