This is a real beauty! The surfaces are apparently flawless, I see no carbon, and the strike and luster look great.
I’m going with at least 65+RD, maybe even 66RD. Regardless of the grade, wow! What eye appeal! What a great example for this super tough date! Congratulations for having it in your collection!

A day without fine wine and working on your coin collection is like a day without sunshine!!!
What a beautiful Indian Head Cent and an 09S to boot. Congrats on a very collectible item. I truly think MS66RD would be a deserving grade for this coin.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

65RD, shot 66. I don't collect this series, but this is a piece I would love to own.

64 RD ??![](https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/cn/8215ep0kroiq.gif)
Thank you everyone for your guesses and comments. I will post grade by mid week. Keep’em coming.
Guessing 63/64 here. Fields seem very busy. Could be the photo too.
I am in at 65RB.
MS-65, R&B
Darn.... Too late again... and would have guessed 65.... but thought it would go RD... Cheers, RickO
In case you missed it
Looks at least 95% red to me. Enjoy!
