Lot Description

1876 Indian Cent. Snow-PR3. Proof-65 RD (PCGS). This wonderfully original olive-orange specimen offers full striking detail from the rims to the centers. Rick Snow (2014) states that the Snow-PR3 die marriage of the Proof 1876 cent is "very difficult to find in high grade." The issue as a whole is scarce in full Red Gem, in fact, further confirming the significance of this offering for advanced Indian cent collectors. PCGS Population: 18; 12 finer in this category (Proof-66 RD finest). PCGS# 2317. NGC ID: 229V. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
