Losbeschreibung: Premium Gem Proof 1900 Indian Cent 1900 Indian Cent. Snow-PR2. Proof-65 RD (NGC). CAC. OH. An exceptionally well preserved specimen with silky smooth surfaces that border on an even higher Gem Proof grade. Both sides retain fully original mint color, the reverse in golden-orange and the obverse even more vivid with blushes of powder blue to dominant rose-red. Sharply struck throughout and a delight to behold. Popular as a turn-of-the-century issue, the Proof 1900 Indian cent has a mintage of 2,062 pieces. These coins were divided fairly evenly between the year's silver and minor Proof sets, 912 for the former and the remaining 1,150 for the latter. Premium full Red Gem specimens are rare, and this is one of the finest that we have ever handled at the assigned grade level. Provenance: Offered as part of a nearly complete and CAC-approved 1900 Proof Set including Gold Coinage. NGC Census: 16; 16 finer in this category (Proof-68 RD finest). CAC Population: 6; 6.
