- 1887 Indian Cent. MS-66 RD (PCGS). This boldly struck, softly frosted example retains full mint color in vivid rose-orange. The exact source of the planchets used for much of this date's 45,223,523-piece circulation strike mintage is unknown, although Rick Snow (2014) opines that the supplier may have been Joseph Wharton, much of the metal coming from remelted cents of earlier dates. While Mint State survivors of the 1887 are readily obtainable by Indian cent standards, few are as expertly preserved and aesthetically pleasing as this premium quality Gem. Provenance: From the BSC Indians Collection, the current 7th Finest on the PCGS Set Registry. PCGS Population: 27; 13 finer in this category (MS-67+ RD finest). PCGS# 2159. NGC ID: 228F.
