Lot Description

A sharply defined example that retains full mint color in bold rose-red. There is a tinge of pale silvery iridescence to the obverse that we mention solely for accuracy. Satin to softly frosted in texture with nicely composed surfaces. Early bronze Indian cents such as the 1866 are rare in the finest Mint State grades, especially with the amount of original mint color retained here. Definitely a find for the advanced specialist.
