Description du lot

1897 Indian Cent. Snow-1, FS-401 (FS-011.5). Misplaced Date. MS-65 BN (NGC). Glossy-copper patina yields to blushes of faded mint luster at the upper-obverse border. Boldly struck, and free of worrisome blemishes. A popular MPD in the Indian Cent series, the 1891 Snow-1 reveals remnants of an errant digit 1 protruding from the front of Liberty's neck.
