Description

1877 1C MS64 Red and Brown PCGS. The Shallow N reverse, diagnostic of all genuine 1877 cents, is particularly distinctive on the present piece, perhaps a late die state as the bottom part of the diagonal N in ONE appears considerably shallower than the top part. Generous amount of mint red still appear on both sides of this near-Gem piece, although some mellowing to brown appears in the obverse fields, with some minor carbon flecks appearing under a loupe and one mentionable carbon spot at the lower reverse rim at 5:30. A sharply struck example for the date.
