August 2018 ANA U.S. Coins Auction Philadelphia, PA

Losbeschreibung: 1870 Indian Cent. FS-901. Shallow N. MS-66 RB (PCGS). CAC. Gorgeous premium Gem quality for this scarce, conditionally challenging issue among early date bronze Indian cents. Lightly toned in iridescent rose-brown, both sides retain much of the original medium orange color. Sharply struck, smooth, and eagerly awaiting inclusion in an advanced Indian cent collection. From a not overly generous mintage of 5,275,000 circulation strikes, many of which were redeemed and melted by the Mint later in the decade. The scarce Shallow N (a.k.a. Reverse of 1869) hub variety adds further appeal. PCGS Population: just 7; 0 finer in this category. PCGS# 2098. NGC ID: 227U. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
