Lot Description

1870 Indian Cent. MS-65+ RD (PCGS). Perfect for the specialist, this radiant, golden-tan Indian seems freshly struck. The immaculate apricot-toned fields shimmer with frosty texture that begs to be rotated. One from only a handful of Gems to survive the subsequent Long Depression of 1873-79, when money became tight for most American families and coinage was met with daunting use. PCGS Population: 14; 11 finer (MS-66+ RD finest) PCGS# 2099. NGC ID: 227U. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
