1871 Indian Cent (1c)

Lovely, original color showing medium brown with touches of real red throughout, this AU example shows even wear and pleasing traces of luster clinging to the legends and devices. Surfaces are smooth for the grade with no distractions worth mentioning, and the strike delivers crisp feather and wreath definition that elevates the eye appeal. Housed in a PCGS holder and blessed with a green CAC sticker, this specimen is all there for a choice AU.
