1898 Indian Cent (1c) Laidacker Collection

Full fire red copper with a rich orange-gold glow that hasn't faded a bit since 1898 - this Indian cent looks like it left the mint last week. The strike is razor-sharp, with every feather tip, diamond, and wreath leaf fully brought up, and satiny luster spins evenly across both sides. Surfaces are remarkably clean for the grade, spot-free and completely original. Housed in a PCGS Gold Shield holder with a green CAC sticker, this specimen offers outstanding eye appeal in a premium gem red cent. From the Laidacker collection.
