This Superb Gem 1893 Indian Head Cent, graded MS66+ RD by PCGS, approved by CAC, and awarded the Eagle Eye Photo Seal, stands as one of the finest survivors of the issue. Rick Snow, in A Guide Book of Flying Eagle and Indian Head Cents (Whitman Publishing, “Official Red Book” series), notes that the date is occasionally seen with a striking anomaly known as “liquid strike-through,” caused by machine oil or water on the dies; however, this premium example displays none of those distractions, instead boasting immaculate surfaces and radiant brilliance. Premium Gems of this date are seldom encountered, and at this lofty level—particularly with CAC approval—the coin resides just outside the Condition Census, with perhaps only 400 estimated to survive in full Red at the Gem level or better. Auction records highlight its exclusivity, with the most recent CAC-approved MS66+ RD realizing $9,600 02/25 HA with the next grade up bringing $44,638 in the Stuart Blay sale. The coin glows with a vibrant copper-red core accented by golden hues over satiny cartwheel luster. Overall, this coin captures the fiery red-gold coloration most prized among Indian Head Cents, combining intense luster, flawless surfaces, and exceptional strike into a specimen of remarkable beauty and registry-level significance.
