Owner Comments:

1863 Indian Head, Copper-Nickel Cent - Mintage:

Beautiful uncirculated example. Well struck with full feather tips on nearly all of the feathers in the headdress. Note the die crack that runs through the lower portion of the reverse. It starts in the lower left in the denticles and runs all the way through the center ribbon.

I'm defiantly out of my element here, but I fail to see why this coin did not receive a higher grade, The rims are solid and square and there's not a mark I can see on the fields or the devices. I've got no frame of reference, so I really don't know what it takes to garner a 64 or 65.

Date acquired: 4/15/2005 (raw coin)
Date graded: 2/7/2013 (self submitted to NGC)
