Lot Description

1863 Indian Cent. Snow-PR1. Proof-65 (PCGS). OGH. Gorgeous golden-brown surfaces reveal vivid undertones of light orange and medium rose in a light. Modestly reflective fields support satiny, fully impressed devices. The technical quality and eye appeal are equally strong. The Snow-PR1 die marriage accounts for most Proof 1863 Indian cents in numismatic hands, and it is identifiable by a series of fine die lines before Liberty's eye. Scarce as a Gem, the present example would make an attractive addition to a high quality Proof type or date set. PCGS Population: 24; 11 finer in this category (Proof-67 finest). PCGS# 2262.
