1909-S Indian Cent, MS64 Red and Brown
Final-Year Issue, CAC

1909-S 1C MS64 Red and Brown PCGS. CAC. Snow-2. The San Francisco branch mint produced its only two Indian Head cent issues in 1908 and 1909. The 1909-S closed the series with the lowest Indian head mintage at just 309,000 commercial strikes. Red and Brown Choice examples are somewhat available at PCGS, but Gems become challenging and finer pieces are conditionally rare. Radiant luster on woodgrain surfaces of honey-gold and light-cocoa produce outstanding eye appeal throughout this near-Gem example. Light, grade-consistent marks are obscured by the splendid toning.
