1872. PCGS graded MS-65 Red & Brown. Boldly struck. This is the key to the circulation strikes of the entire series. Only 65,000 struck, and attractive mint state coins are few and far between. Highly recommended if you are working on--or just finishing--a high grade collection of this short-lived series. The eye appeal of this particular coin is quite strong and should not be missed if quality is your goal. Pop 17; 5 finer, 2 in 65+, 1 in 66. (PCGS # 3613) .
Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,500.
