New addition to IHC Proof Registry

[dean1345]

Care to guess the grade of this new Proof Indian acquisition?

 

These copper nickel Indian Head Cents are getting harder and harder to find. I recently purchased this 1860 which had been slabbed by NGC with their new pronged holder. Do you care for the new holders? Care to test your grading skills and offer up your grade for this new IHC? All opinions are appreciated.

without seeing the reverse, i would call it an ms65

I will say PF65

 

I was wondering since it is in a new holder, did they not put any color designation.

Copper nickel coins IHC proof or mint strike (1859-1864) do not receive a color designation.

It is PF65 Gem. Thanks for your participation.
