Lot Description

1877 Indian Cent. AU-55 (PCGS). Sharply defined in all but a few isolated areas, this otherwise medium brown example reveals light golden undertones as the surfaces dip into a light. A touch of glossiness to the texture is noted for accuracy, as is a faint pin scratch in the left obverse field. This is the key issue to completion of a circulation strike Indian cent series, and the 1877 is particularly popular with collectors in the finest circulated grades, as here. PCGS# 2127.
