Product Details: This 1860 Indian Head Cent represents a significant milestone in American numismatics, marking the very first year the design transitioned from the laurel wreath to the oak wreath with a shield. Professionally graded by PCGS as MS 64, this 'fatty' cent boasts the substantial copper-nickel composition and thicker planchet characteristic of early small cents before the mid-Civil War alloy change. The coin exhibits the crisp, sharp strike expected of a Choice Mint State specimen, highlighting the intricate details of James B. Longacre's 'Rounded Bust' Liberty design. With its brilliant luster and exceptional eye appeal, this survivor offers a window into the pre-war era, making it a cornerstone addition for any serious Type Set collector.
