PCGS doesn't assign colors to the copper nickel cents. The coin is more lustrous in hand than in the photos with a reddish hue.
Rest in Peace

Can't quite tell from the photos I'll say MS-62 but could also be an AU-58

And the PCGS grade is:

1862-Indian-Head-Cent---You-Vs.-PCGS

This coin has got a lot of eye appeal in hand so I agree with the grade. It is quickly becoming one of my favorite coins in my collection. It is my first MS copper nickel cent and I may be hooked.

Hmmm!
The reverse shield looks to have weak strike that I thought would kept it away from MS-63. This next to Mercury dime is next in my favorite list.

Very nice coin, I agree with MS-63, is that a small Cud on the denticle that the lowest arrow points to?

Same here. I thought the coin had remarkably clean surfaces.

I would've said MS-63. My grading skills are getting better!

invisibleninja7,

I think it is a die crack that you are referring to.
