1869/69 NGC VF-35. 1869/69 NGC VF-35.
Lot Title: 1869/69 NGC VF-35.
Description: Perhaps a middle die-state coin, the extra curve above the "9" can be seen but will appear bolder on some coins struck from newer dies. The equivalent of a full diamond shows on the headdress drop, and truth be told, we would prefer to have seen a grade of VF-25 to 30 given, especially given a shallow contact mark touching the bridge of the nose. Nonetheless, the color is perfect and the surfaces much nicer than usual for the date. (PCGS# 037474)
Low Estimate: $500.00

Price history for items of the same classification:
Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
314The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014$525.00
1869 PCGS Genuine, code 94.
Just about 3.5 diamonds suggest a decent though not full strike. The reverse passes as fully original, but the obverse seems to have been darkened for reasons unknown. UNC details in our opinion,...
315The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014$1,050.00
1869 NGC MS-64 BN.
Probably 20% red on the obverse and 50% red on the reverse, it's easy to think the color designation could be upgraded at some point, nor is there any lack of luster. Sharp flowline texture...
242The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$450.00
1869/69 PCGS VF-20.
The curve of the underlying digit clearly rises above the "9", and also can be seen above the loop of the "6". Zero diamonds show on the band, but that is no surprise for VF-20, nor is the presence...
243The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$210.00
1869 PCGS VF-20.
As always for these early dates in this grade, middle letters in LIBERTY are not quite complete, yet at least the top diamond shows boldly on the band below. This coin offers ideal chocolate-brown...
244The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$825.00
1869 NGC PF-65 RB.
"RB" in the PF-65 RB grade denotes "red-brown" color, but can someone at NGC please point out exactly where the coin shows any brown? At first and second glance, the surfaces appear to exhibit fully...
234The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$750.00
1869, 1879, and an 1880, all PF-63.
PF-63 is offered merely as a guideline, as it's often nearly impossible to predict which way a TPG will go with regard to color when certifying proof small-cents. 1869 has terrific brilliance but...
235The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$1,000.00
1869 and 1872, both AU.
Everyone who collects the series knows that both 1869 and 1872 Indian head cents are very difficult to find "nice", especially in better grades. Corrosion and miserable surfaces plague most examples,...
225The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011$1,400.00
1869/69 (FS-301) NGC MS-64 RB.
Repunching is most visible on the "9" in the date, and leads to the FS-301 attribution. Red and brown patina mixes in about equal proportions for both sides, with the reverse probably leaning closer...
243The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$500.00
1869 PCGS MS-62BN.
Luster is startlingly brisk for the MS-62 grade, and while the obverse is only faintly tinged with copper-gold accents, the reverse actually appears to still be about a third mint-red. Excellent...
198The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$500.00
1869 MS-60.
Here is an 1869 Indian head cent that is fascinating on a couple of levels. From the standpoint of die character, an extensive die crack on the reverse suggests a virtually shattered die, as it...
461The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$380.00
1869 ICG XF-45.
1869 is a semi-key known for the extent to which examples have been ravaged by environmental problems, with this ICG XF-45 providing a wonderful exception to that trend. Indeed, attractive...
