- Lot Description
- 1879 Indian Cent. Proof-66 RD Cameo (PCGS). A pleasing coin with heavily frosted devices and deep mirror fields glow with an intense array of vibrant mint orange, while a sheen of attractive olive iridescence engages the fields in a bright light source. Examination reveals a pleasing woodgrain effect throughout. The Proof production figure for the date of 3,200 pieces practically insures that <em>any</em> collector desiring a Proof of the issue will no doubt encounter a specimen in due time. However, we suggest that very few pieces can equal the aesthetic treat offered here.
