1873 Indian Head Cent. Closed 3. PCGS graded MS-65 Red & Brown. Pop 20; 1 finer in 66 Much scarcer variety. Lovely light wood grain effect between the red color and deepening brown shades (PCGS # 2110) .

Coins of 1873 were made with Closed 3 in the date and Open 3 in the date. A quick glance at the 1873 Closed 3 date, made early in the year, resembled "1878," as the gap between the knobs on the 3 is narrow. The Open 3 was created by filing away most of the bottom knob on the 3 of the date logotype and trimming the knob to a smaller size; dies punched with this modified date logotype are called Open 3.
Estimated Value $2,200 - 2,400.
