- Dramatic 1894/1894 Repunched Date Indian Cent A Remarkable Condition Rarity in PCGS/CAC MS-65 RD 1894/1894 Indian Cent. Snow-1, FS-301. Doubled Date. MS-65 RD (PCGS). CAC. Breathtakingly beautiful surfaces retain full mint color in vivid gold and rose-orange shades. Intensely lustrous with a softly frosted texture, both sides are also sharply struck and carefully preserved. Along with the 1873 Doubled LIBERTY, 1867/67, 1897 1 in Neck, and 1888/7, the 1894/1894 is one of the top five varieties in the Indian cent series. It is also one of the most visually dramatic, the initial date punched too high with a slant to the right, its remnants bold and widely offset from the primary digits. According to Rick Snow (2014), a half roll of Gem Mint State examples was discovered in the early 1990s. These coins are identifiable by the presence of one or more strikethroughs (as made) in the fields. With two such features evident in the left obverse field before Liberty's portrait, the present example likely traces its provenance to that find, which accounts for the majority of high grade survivors available to today's advanced Indian cent variety collectors. An outstanding condition rarity that is worthy of the strongest bids. Provenance: From the ESM Collection. PCGS Population: 10; 3 finer (MS-66 RD finest). PCGS# 92189.
