Description
1885 1C MS65 Red PCGS. The Philadelphia Mint's ongoing difficulties with finding an adequate and affordable supplier of cent planchets resulted in a delivery of only 11.7 million pieces in 1885. This is the lowest business strike mintage for an Indian cent from the 1880s. The present Gem quality survivor is awash in fulsome orange-red luster. Select angles reveal suggestions of pale lavender color, but we can find no noteworthy carbon. Solidly graded as a Gem with pinpoint striking definition. Population: 56 in 65 Red, 10 finer (2/09).Ex: Joseph P. Gorrell Collection (Heritage, 1/2003), lot 4444.
