1866 FS-301 Indian Cent, MS65 Red
Snow-2, Repunched Date

1866 1C Repunched Date, Snow-2, FS-301, MS65 Red PCGS. CAC. Eagle Eye Photo Seal. The initial date punch was entered with an upward slant from left to right, and then corrected. Obvious remnants of the original entry are visible below the serif of the 1 and above the second 6. Not only is this a fascinating and elusive variety, but it also proves that the Mint's engraving department employed four-digit logotypes. This brilliant Gem features bold design definition with full detail at the tips of each feather. The highly lustrous orange mint surfaces are frosty and mark-free. This example is one of the finest survivors from the Snow-2 dies. Population for all 1866 Indian cents: 27 in 65 Red, 9 finer. CAC: 4 in 65, 3 finer (1/25).
Selections From The Burge Collection.
