- 1899 Indian Cent. MS-67 RD (PCGS).
Drenched in a blend of rose-red color and frosty mint luster, this smooth and inviting Superb Gem makes a lovely impression in all regards. A popular issue for type purposes, the 1899 inaugurates a run of high mintage circulation strike cents from the Philadelphia Mint that would continue through the end of the Indian series in 1909. Survivors from a mintage of 53,598,000 pieces are plentiful in virtually all Mint State grades, Rick Snow (2014) even asserting that, "Apparently, a few more uncirculated rolls were found of this date that any other date in the series with the exception of the final year, 1909." We stress the term "virtually all," however, for near the apex of the numismatic grading scale the 1899 emerges as a phenomenal condition rarity. This is one of the most exceptional examples known to PCGS, and also one of the nicest circulation strike 1899 Indian cent that we can ever recall offering.
