1899 Indian Cent (1c) Laidacker Collection

Full mint red with glowing orange-gold color that beams evenly across both sides. The strike is sharp with nice feathering, diamond detail, and the reverse wreath is crisply rendered - and the satiny surfaces show only trivial ticks that keep it from the next step up. The only notable flaw is a lone spot well hidden on the shield. Eye appeal is decidedly strong for a 65, verified by the green CAC sticker. Housed in a PCGS Gold Shield holder. From the Laidacker collection.
