- Delightful orange-apricot and pale pinkish-rose surfaces retain full mint color that provides extraordinary eye appeal. Both sides are highly lustrous with a universally full strike from the dies. The reverse is rotated approximately 30 degrees clockwise from normal coin alignment. This second year bronze Indian cent issue has a mintage of 35,429,286 circulation strikes, a generous total that suggests that there was still a great need for new cents to rectify the coinage shortage in the East and Midwest created by the withdrawal of gold, silver and copper-nickel coins that began early in the Civil War. As an issue the 1865 is readily obtainable in Mint State, although with the quality and eye appeal offered here it is a condition rarity. As one of the finer examples known to PCGS and CAC, in fact, this lovely coin is sure to have no difficulty finding its way into an impressive Indian cent set.
