- Premium Quality Gem Uncirculated 1887 Cent 1887 Indian Cent. MS-66+ RD (PCGS). CAC. Vivid rose-red color is seen on both sides of this outstanding upper end Gem. It is a sharp and attractive example that will hold great appeal for Indian cent enthusiasts. 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. PCGS Population: 12; 3 finer in this category (MS-67+ RD finest). CAC Population: 12; 3. The former total includes coins certified both MS-66 RD and MS-66+ RD, by both PCGS and NGC. PCGS# 2159.
