Lot Description

1864 Indian Cent. Bronze. Proof-66+ RB (NGC). An impressive condition rarity for the first-year bronze Indian Cent issue, this fully struck proof also exhibits modest, yet appreciable reflective tendencies in the fields. An otherwise reddish-orange obverse is splashed with light gray-brown iridescence, while for the reverse we note an overall lighter rose-orange hue. Premium Gem quality with nary a detracting blemish to report.
