3026: 1909 1C MS67+ Red PCGS. After 50 years in service
1909 1C MS67+ Red PCGS. After 50 years in service, James B. Longacre's Indian Head cent was retired in 1909, replaced by Victor David Brenner's Lincoln cent design. The 1909 Indian Head cent was struck to the extent of 14.3 million pieces, many of which were saved in high grades as final-year type coins. Gems and even Premium Gems remain accessible in the Red color category, with coins only becoming scarce at this esteemed level. Most importantly, this represents one of the three top-graded MS67+ Red submissions at PCGS. Distinctly copper-orange surfaces glow with radiant mint luster. The cheek and adjacent fields are remarkably clean and carbon-free. A single tick appears left of the chin. Population: 22 in 67 (3 in 67+) Red, 0 finer (6/20).
