Description

1860 Indian Cent, PR65
Proof Copper-Nickel Type Coin

1860 1C PR65 PCGS. This exquisitely struck and nearly unmarked Gem has reflective fields with a hint of satin luster. A few tiny carbon flecks on the central reverse deny a higher grade. The Guide Book reports a mintage of 1,000 pieces, but a majority of this production was melted as unsold, and high-grade survivors are rare. There is modest cameo contrast on this piece, although not significant enough to warrant a designation from PCGS. Population: 40 in 65, 12 finer (11/15).
Ex: Dallas Signature (Heritage, 11/2005), lot 240; Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 2/2008), lot 3103.(Registry values: N2998)
