Losbeschreibung

Here is a magnificent 1862 Indian cent, from the brief copper-nickel, Oak Wreath series of 1861 through 1864. The surfaces are essentially flawless, with subtle prooflike reflectivity in the fields and undisturbed frosty texture throughout. Exceptionally well struck for the issue, we note bold to sharp detail to all design elements. The attractive surfaces are tan-rose in color and wonderfully original in preservation. With 28,075,000 pieces struck, the 1862 has the second highest mintage of this brief subseries within the wider Indian cent series. Examples of the 1862 are readily available in most Mint State grades up through MS-65, but they become exponentially more elusive approaching Superb Gem condition. In attractive PCGS MS-66, the present piece is superior to most, and destined for inclusion in an advanced cabinet.
