- 1864 Indian Cent. Copper-Nickel. MS-66+ (PCGS).
Satin to semi-reflective surfaces with dominant pale tan color, a blush of reddish-apricot iridescence further enlivens the central reverse. Sharp striking detail and superior preservation enhance the desirability of this lovely coin. A transitional year in the early Indian cent series, 1864 saw the production of the final copper-nickel coins as well as the first bronze examples. The copper-nickel 1864 has a relatively limited mintage of 13,740,000 circulation strikes, although Mint State survivors exist in large numbers thanks to hoarding during the later Civil War era. Most are in lower grades due to poor striking quality and/or surface preservation, however, the present upper end Gem representing a significant find for the astute Indian cent enthusiast.
Provenance: From the Silver Springs Collection.
PCGS Population: 7; with a single MS-67 finer.
PCGS# 2070. NGC ID: 227K.
