Incredible 1888 Indian Cent, MS66 Red

1888 1C MS66 Red PCGS. Snow-5a. The last 8 is clearly doubled below, and the reverse has a die crack through the top of the shield. This coin has outstanding original color and is completely unmellowed. As a result, the surfaces show glowing mint luster and, as the grade indicates, there are no obvious abrasions on either side. The devices are fully struck with one notable exception: On the tip of the third feather of the headdress it appears something clogged the die, preventing the details from striking up completely in that one particular area. Population: 12 in 66 Red, 1 finer (2/09).
