- Lot Description
- 1863 Indian Cent. Proof-65+ Cameo (NGC).
Incredibly beautiful surfaces are silky smooth with vivid tannish-apricot color. The devices are fully defined with a soft satin texture that contrasts appreciably with mirrored reflectivity in the fields. The estimated mintage of this issue is 460 coins, the actual total probably a bit higher to account for the Mint's issuance of some examples individually as opposed to as part of the year's Proof sets. Scarcer than the Proof 1862 cent, and Cameo-designated specimens, as here, are in the minority among survivors offered in today's market.
NGC Census: 1; 9 finer in this category (Proof-67 * Cameo finest).
PCGS# 82262. NGC ID: 229D.
