- 1874 Indian Cent. MS-65 RD (PCGS). CAC.
A fully struck, highly lustrous Gem bathed in light rose-red. The year 1874 saw a radical shift in the Mint's handling of earlier dated bronze cents which it had been redeeming since 1871. Rather than melt those coins and use the metal to strike new examples (as it had done from 1871 through 1873), the Mint began to reissue redeemed coins alongside newly struck pieces. Accordingly, the 1874 has a higher rate of survival than the bronze Indian cent issues of 1864 to 1873. Even so, this is a conditionally challenging issue with few survivors from the mintage of 14,187,500 pieces grading finer than Choice Mint State. Full Red Gems such as this are seldom offered, and this coin is far more attractive than many identically graded pieces that we have handled recently. Sure to sell for a strong bid.
PCGS Population: 43; 16 finer in this category (MS-66 RD finest).
PCGS# 2120. NGC ID: 227Z.
