1880 1C, RB MS (PCGS#2137)

August 2019 ANA U.S. Coins Auction Rosemont, IL

详细说明: 1880 Indian Cent. MS-66 RB (PCGS). CAC. Delightful satin surfaces are far more Red than Brown, both sides with dominant rose-orange color that provides outstanding visual appeal. A blush of pale gold is evident in the date area, actual toning minimal and confined to wisps of glossy-brown iridescence that are not discernible at all viewing angles. Fully struck from the rims to the centers with a virtually pristine appearance. Commercial demand for circulating cents was clearly up in 1880, the Mint redeeming 3,626,501 earlier dated examples, reissuing 3,342,000 coins, and striking a generous 38,961,000 new pieces from 1880-dated dies. This is a plentiful issue in an absolute sense, Rick Snow (2014) describing it as "one of the easiest dates to find in high grades in the 1880's, probably due to the chance survival of a few more rolls that other dates." Yet even so, the spectacular condition census Gem offered here has few peers among PCGS-certified examples, its nearly full Red surfaces sure to result in strong competition among astute bidders. PCGS Population: 4; with a single MS-66+ RB finer in this category. CAC Population: 3; 0. PCGS# 2137. NGC ID: 2287. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
