Description

Elusive Gem 1866 Indian Cent

1866 1C MS65 Red PCGS. Ex: Richard Collection. Although this early bronze Cent boasts a respectable (for the era) original mintage of 9.8 million pieces, fully lustrous Gems are few and far between in today's market. They are also few and far between in our auctions, with only six other so graded examples being offered over the past ten years. Softly frosted in texture, this lustrous representative displays cherry-red color over fully brought up devices. Nearly distraction-free, as one would expect for the MS65 level of preservation. Population: 25 in 65, 5 finer (9/04).(#2087) (Registry values: N4719)
