- 1879 Indian Cent. MS-66 RD (NGC).
A lovely blend of vivid deep rose and reddish-orange colors greets the viewer from both sides of this inviting Indian cent. Fully struck, highly lustrous and expertly preserved. Although easier to obtain in full Red Gem than most of the earlier-dated issues in this series, the 1879 is still scarce to rare in the finest grades when viewed in the wider context of U.S. numismatics.
NGC Census: just 3; 0 finer in this category.
