Charming PR66 1862 Copper-Nickel Cent

1862 1C PR66 PCGS. Even though only 550 proofs were struck for this issue, it is usually more available than the two previous copper-nickel dates, and it also has a reputation for superior striking quality. The surfaces on this piece are exceptionally clean. Each side shows lovely honey-golden coloration with a slight accent of lilac intermixed. A lovely proof representative of the type. Population: 30 in 66, 1 finer (4/09).
