Owner's Comments

1899 Indian Head Cent MS66RD { PCGS-3 } (May'2007) Deeply set, rich, cherry-red luster blankets frosty satin textured surfaces and compliment the strong strike. The feathers feature excellent detail and four boldly outlined diamonds adorn the ribbon. This piece is all about the as-struck mint-fresh luster, uncomplicated by the complete lack of toning or spots or marks of any kind.
