Description

1863 25C PR64 PCGS. Although both sides of this near-Gem carry a thin veil of natural patination, the obverse exhibits slightly more visible wisps of tan highlights. Lightly cameoed (although not so designated on the PCGS holder), the surfaces carry a few wispy hairlines that preclude a full Gem designation. The elusiveness of its business strike counterpart, which is very scarce in Mint State, attaches special desirability to this Civil War proof among date collectors. Population: 54 in 64, 19 finer (2/09).
