Owner Comments:
1906 is a common date. A goodly number of high end mint state coins have been graded at both services, yet those in Gem or better rarely come on the market. It is likely that a couple small groupings of these coins were graded at the same time, and possibly not dispersed to the public. Very common in circulated grades, and low-end mint state.
No varieties are given by Flatt or Krause for this date. Placement of the "6" in date varies.
Six in MS 62 at PCGS, one at NGC, three in 63 at NGC, one at PCGS, three each in 64 at PCGS/NGC, four in 65 at NGC, three at NGC, three each in 66 at PCGS/NGC, one in 67 at NGC, three at PCGS. Thirty-four total graded, fourteen in Gem or better.
Tied with two others at NGC and three at PCGS in 66. Four better. This coin features soft but full luster with lovely burnt orange tone across the obverse.
