Description
Rare Proof 1859 Indian Cent With Lovely Surfaces
1859 1C PR 65 PCGS. We have handled our fair share of proof 1859 Indian cents, but few have compared to this Gem in terms of surface preservation and eye appeal. Both sides display vibrant orange-tan color with blushes of beautiful apricot and lilac iridescence intermingled over the centers. The surfaces are essentially distraction-free, and Liberty's portrait is particularly smooth. A shimmering example, and one of only 800 pieces produced, many of which were melted as unsold.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2299, PCGS# 2247, GSID# 1467)
