1862 Indian Cent (1c)

Warm honey-gold surfaces with soft olive and tan undertones give this Gem copper-nickel cent a thoroughly original look. The strike is sharp - nice feathers, a bold LIBERTY on the headband, and crisp wreath and shield detail on the reverse. Satiny luster glows evenly across both sides, and the fields are notably clean for the grade with nothing that catches the eye. Housed in a PCGS Gold Shield holder, this example delivers wholesome, undisturbed eye appeal in a popular Civil War date.
