Description

1901 Cent, MS67+ Red
Tied With Two Others at PCGS, None Finer

1901 1C MS67+ Red PCGS. Nearly 80 million Indian Head cents were struck in 1901, up considerably from the 66.8 million coins produced the year before. Unsurprisingly, this is a fairly collectible issue with hundreds of examples available in MS64 Red and MS65 Red. Premium Gems in that color category begin to pose a challenge, but the 1901 is only genuinely elusive in MS67 Red. Just four examples boast a Plus designation: three at PCGS and one at NGC (3/26).
     Copper-orange surfaces glow with swirling cartwheel luster. The fields exhibit finely grained die fatigue but post-production flaws are essentially unseen. Only the date and shield show vague incompleteness. The remaining devices are strong. PCGS Population: 27 in 67 (3 in 67+), 0 finer (3/26).
