Description

1878 1C MS65 Brown PCGS. This is a sharply struck Gem with excellent eye appeal. Each side has attractive lilac and brown toning with considerable remaining orange mint color. Most would have designated this as Red and Brown. Perhaps a fourth color designation is needed, for Red and Brown covers so much territory. Why not save this designation for coins with between 50% and 90% original red, and add a "Brown and Red" color designation for coins with 20% to 50% original red color?(#2130) (Registry values: N991)
