      General Notes: This semi-key date comes from a high mintage of over 16.2 million of which mostly all were melted down, making this a very scarce Indian Cent. The 1879 is a better date in circulated grades that becomes scarce in Mint State. It is notably rare in gem condition and very tough to locate with red color.
