1873 Open 3 Indian Cent, NGC/CAC MS-62BN, Misplaced Date, Tough with CAC

$527.00

Tough with CAC approval: 53 at PCGS, 48 NGC versus only 7 at CAC, Zero CACG (Nov. 2026).  A somewhat surprising lack of total Population on the face of it, however maybe not considering the Depression that started this year.  Existing coinages would have been heavily used, leading to relatively few BU examples available to grade.  This is a nice original coin that came out of Europe, with some noticeable remaining traces of original planchet color and no significant marks.  In the bad old days pre-PCGS, this would undoubtedly been sold as Gem Unc.  Misplaced date, showing beneath the "8" - this is not S-5 based upon date position.  There are also some light file marks around the "3", suggesting remnant signs of the die modification from the Close 3 hub design.  Not the greatest detail image of this feature, with my apologies, however it shows up readily on the actual coin.  Either way, a nice coin worthy of a premium.
