- 1886 Indian Cent. Type I Obverse. MS-66 RD (PCGS).
This is a sharply struck, silky smooth example that retains a full endowment of original rose-red color. The more readily obtainable hub variety of the circulation strike 1886 Indian cent, the Type I Obverse has an estimated mintage of 10,000,000 pieces out of the 17,650,000 coins reportedly struck that year (this estimate per Rick Snow, 2014). Q. David Bowers (2006) provides an even more generous estimate for the 1886 Type I Obverse of 14,000,000 pieces produced. While plentiful in an absolute sense, Mint State examples are seldom full Red, as here, since many of the planchets used for this issue are lightly colored and toned quickly. A find for the astute bidder.
PCGS Population: 5; 2 finer in this category (both MS-66+ RD).
PCGS# 2156. NGC ID: 272Y.
