- 1865 Indian Cent. Fancy 5. MS-66 RD (PCGS).
Delightful orange-apricot and pale pinkish-rose surfaces retain full mint color that provides extraordinary eye appeal. Both sides are highly lustrous with a universally full strike from the dies. This second year bronze Indian cent issue has a mintage of 35,429,286 circulation strikes, a generous total that suggests that there was still a great need for new cents to rectify the coinage shortage in the East and Midwest created by the withdrawal of gold, silver and copper-nickel coins that began early in the Civil War. As an issue the 1865 is readily obtainable in Mint State, although with the quality and eye appeal offered here it is a condition rarity. As one of the finest examples known to PCGS, in fact, this lovely coin is sure to have no difficulty finding its way into another impressive Indian cent set.
Rick Snow (2014) estimates that 20 million of the circulation strike 1865 cents produced are of the Fancy 5 variety.
Provenance: From the BSC Indians Collection, the current 7th Finest on the PCGS Set Registry.
PCGS Population: 13; 3 finer in this category (all MS-66+ RD)
PCGS# 2084. NGC ID: 227N.
