Grade: NGC MINT ERROR MS 66 RB
Research: View Coin
Owner Comments
1888 1 Centime Double Hole Punch Error NGC MS66RB crossed over from a PCGS MS66RB. A tremendously cool error in top notch grade.
Likely a unique error. It does show that the holes were punched after the coins were struck.
Ex. Spink from Auction 14007 17-18 December 2014, Lot 139, where it was in a group lot with two other copper coins, described as: "Centime, 1888, same type (cf Dupriez 69 ; KM.1), lustre, deposit on legend at one o'clock, double holed, uncirculated". Likely conserved by PCGS.

(7) 3 BR Uncirculated. 1 Gem Uncirculated. 1 Gem Uncirculated (MS66 in my opinion). One NGC MS66RB, a nice match to the 1 centime above, also beautiful with an ample amount of red remaining.
NGC MS65RD - Very hard to find in full red, even harder in Gem Red! See next entry to view this luscious coin.

My examples are actual 1888's, which are quite a bit rarer than the over-date variety.

(Note: I have seen third party graded examples that are not true 1888's, but rather an 1888/7, so check well. The difference is very easily discerned).

(2) NGC MS64+BN and PCGS MS64RB Very rare this nice for this date. Two of the finest graded. Very tough date this high or higher.
The NGC piece was conserved ny NCS. They were unable to remove one carbon spot on each side, but still improved the overall look of the coin anyway.

A beautiful 1887 10 Centimes piece previously graded PCGS MS65 and now upgraded to an NGC MS66 BN with lovely color. The sole finest graded by NGC and none this high at PCGS.

1887 is a very tough date for finding really nice 10 centimes.
