CoinFacts Details

Owner's Comments

This original 1903 MS63RB OGH Indian Cent has nice eye appeal with nice luster and nice strike. Nice color and surfaces. Certified: PCGS MS63RB. Description on eBay: 1903 Indian Cent PCGS MS63RB Nice Eye Appeal Nice Luster Nice Strike. Note "old green holder" (OGH). Paid $61 buy-it-now, but got 8% eBay bucks ($4.88), so net $56.12. Actual coin, once received, was a little disappointing due to uneven tone on obverse, but got this one at safe price (MS63 RB coins routinely sell $60-65) and it's OGH, and it does have luster. Sold for $47 at Heritage Auctions 8/18/2009.
