Lot Description

Endearing vivid reddish-rose mint color blends with smooth, satiny luster on both sides of this premium Gem Uncirculated example. As one of the more readily obtainable 1880s Indian cents in Mint State, the 1882 is often selected for inclusion in type sets by collectors who wish to avoid the truly common issues from the 1890s and 1900s. Few survivors from this generous 38,578,000-piece issue are as carefully preserved and aesthetically pleasing as this vivid MS-66 RD, however, confirming the significance of this offering for the advanced Indian cent enthusiast. Low CAC stickered pop!
