<Our item number 125065><B>1864 Indian Head Cent. Bronze. PCGS graded MS-66 Red & Brown.</B> A nice strike with some mint color still visable. Though the copper-nickel cents of 1859-64 did yeoman&#39;s duty in replacing the large, out-of-fashion cents struck prior to 1857, the mint had had enough with the problems of striking coins made out of the troublesome nickel alloy. This year, there were three cent varieties minted. The present example, the second to be struck, is on a 48 grain bronze planchet that replaced the heavier thick 72-grain copper-nickel pieces. <B>Pop 21; none finer @ PCGS.</B> <B>&#40;PCGS # 2077&#41;</B>. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;500 - 550. <BR><BR>Our item number 125065<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/44jpegs/125065.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/44jpegs/125065N2.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/44jpegs/125065N3.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/44jpegs/1250 65N4.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
