mtuma3 Pillar of the Community United States 744 Posts	Posted 05/19/2020 11:14 pm Just got this. 1887 One Cent... Its actually a nice deep brown in color... My oldest Canadian coins to this point was 1960's that I found when I was a kid... So this was kind of a nice find. Mark ANA Member My7070 Report this Post to the Staff

And I'm a big fan of original brown EF coins in this large cent series. Sometimes there's too much focus on red. Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5612 Posts	Posted 05/20/2020 06:59 am I agree with the "too much focus on red" comment. I try to collect, as keepers, not researchers, XF+ and AU coins. I really don't like red and I have never bought a cert'd coin, unless it was in a larger lot of raw coins. The 1887's were always struck nicely and some nice R/P'd 7's. Congrats on finding a keper!
