Indian Cents
1888/7 1C Snow-1, FS-301, AU55 NGC. The remnants of an undertype 7 are visible below the final 8 in the date and a small cud appears on the obverse rim above UNITED, identifying the popular Snow-1 variety. The Cherrypickers' Guide calls this issue (FS-301), "the #1 cherrypick among Indian Head cents." Demand is always high for this rare Guide Book overdate, which brings significant premiums in all grades and conditions.
The present coin is an impressive Choice AU specimen, with just a touch of wear on the well-detailed design elements. The light brown surfaces are lightly abraded and the diagnostic die break on the rim is plainly evident. Census: 1 in 55, 3 finer (5/17).
