Low-Mintage, High-Grade 1909-S Indian Cent
MS66 Red

1909-S 1C MS66 Red PCGS. Ex: Richard. The 1909-S Indian cent has a paltry mintage of only 309,000 pieces, which rivals the 1877 in desirability and overall rarity. It is also a condition rarity, with only 12 other MS66 Red coins certified as such by PCGS, and just one finer piece (5/10). This is a lovely, bright orange-red example that has even color over each side, no obvious carbon spots, and no abrasions. Slight weakness is evident at the feather tips and on the lower part of the wreath, but the quality is otherwise stunning.
Ex: Richard Collection (Heritage, 1/2004), lot 4363.(Registry values: N4719)
