A semi-key, better date in the Indian Head cent series, this piece has a lot going for it. It is graded by PCGS, has the desirable green CAC sticker, and, as an extra bonus, also carries the Eagle Eye Photo Seal (please read details below). PCGS has graded 236 as MS64RB with 120 finer in Red Brown. In CAC, there are 44 in MS64RB with 36 finer.

Rick Snow is a coin dealer and specialist on Indian Head cents. He is also the author of several books over the years on Flying Eagle and Indian Head cents. He developed the Eagle Eye Photo Seal that is found on this offering from AUCM. Below Snow explains his motivation for developing the Eagle Eye Photo Seal:

Not all certified coins are equal. We have seen coins that are in reality no better than MS-63's sitting in MS-66 holders. Our records prove that over 1/2 of the Flying Eagle and Indian Cents in slabs today are overgraded or just plain ugly. Even one overgraded coin in the marketplace makes a buy sell market based solely on slabs impossible. Since we see and sell more high grade Flying Eagle and Indian Cents than anyone, we were in a unique position to put our knowledge and experience to work in creating true consistency in the grading of slabs.

What we do is put a label on the plastic holder and make a plastic laminated photo certificate to accompany the coin. These Photo Seals attest that I, Rick Snow, have examined the coin and agree with the grading services opinion. It's a second opinion that carries extra benefit, because they can then be bought and sold at our market price.
