<B>1873 1C Doubled LIBERTY MS65 Red and Brown NGC.</B></I> FS-009.1, Snow-2. Copper-gold patina with splashes of crimson and tan adorns both sides. A well struck coin with no significant marks. Richard Snow writes: "It is unfortunate that this very nice variety is overshadowed by the S1 Doubled LIBERTY. The doubling is less dramatic but obvious." While not as rare as the Type One with fully doubled LIBERTY, lips, and eye on the Indian, this scarce Snow-2 variety is still eagerly sought by knowledgeable collectors. The present coin displays strong doubling at ERTY. Census: 3 in 65 Red and Brown, 0 finer (1/08).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> James B.
