Lot Description

Lovely and Rare Cameo Proof 1894 Indian Cent 1894 Indian Cent. Snow-PR3. Proof-66 RD Cameo (PCGS). Richly original deep rose color enhances both sides of this expertly produced, carefully preserved Proof cent. Nicely mirrored in the fields, the devices are set apart with a soft satin texture. Fully struck with eye appeal to spare, this coin will be perfect for another highly regarded Proof Indian cent collection. A particularly interesting die marriage of this issue, Snow-PR3 exhibits two light hubbing defects caused by lint within the feathers of Liberty's headdress. Cameo-designated survivors of this 2,632 piece Proof mintage are exceedingly rare in today's market. Provenance: From the ESM Collection. Earlier from Heritage's FUN Signature Sale of January 2004, lot 4538. PCGS Population: 2; with a single Proof-67 RD Cameo finer in this category. PCGS# 82371. NGC ID: 22AG.
