Gorgeous MS67 Red 1882 Cent

1882 1C MS67 Red PCGS. Ex: Joshua and Ally Walsh. Fire-red hues frame green-gold centers. Potent cartwheel luster sweeps across the unabraded surfaces, which are pristine aside from the most minute carbon flecks. A hint of lilac color is noted above the second S in STATES. The strike is very sharp, since only the top outline of the shield exhibits any indication of incompleteness of definition. Certified in a prior generation PCGS holder. The 1882 is scarce in full Red, even in MS64 and lower grades, since time has mellowed the original color of most Uncirculated survivors. It is remarkable for an example to combine full Red color with high-end preservation. Population: 2 in 67 Red, 0 finer (3/09).
