Semikey 1872 Near-Gem Red Cent

1872 1C MS64 Red PCGS. Bold N. This scarce semikey date had a mintage of over 4 million pieces, many of which entered circulation or were melted. Approximately 80 Mint State coins have been given the Red designation by either PCGS or NGC. Lustrous pumpkin-gold and olive with splashes of ruby-red on the portrait and chestnut-tan near CENT. The design elements are sharply struck, including clear definition on all four diamonds. Unimportant contact on the Indian's cheek barely merits mention. Population: 46 in 64 Red, 14 finer (6/10).
