Lot 1522
1870 Indian Head Cent. PCGS graded Proof 65 Red. Approx 1000 proofs minted. Nice red coin with very few spots. Sometimes on this issue, the devices that were left by the dies come up short of the required precision due to weak die pressure even on the Proofs, but we find the opposite to be the case here, everything is finely detailed, including the centers and feather ends. Bright and lustrous deep crimson surfaces almost as glorious and fresh as the day this particular specimen left the mint. Pop 22; 4 in 66 RD. (PCGS # 2299) .
Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,200.
