Outstanding Gem Proof 1900 Indian Cent None Graded Finer PCGS. 1900 Indian Cent. Snow-PR3. Proof-67 RD Cameo (PCGS). CAC. Aglow with vivid medium orange and reddish-rose colors, this lovely Superb Gem also offers bold contrast. The fields are well mirrored, while the devices exhibit a soft satin texture. Fully struck from the rims to the centers with a smooth appearance at the assigned grade level. Beautiful! 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. Cameo-finish specimens are rare in all grades, and this is one of the finest known to PCGS. Provenance: From the ESM Collection.
