- Gem Proof 1867 Cent
1867 Indian Cent. Snow-PR1, the only known dies. Proof-65 RD Cameo (PCGS).
Blushes of warm reddish-orange iridescence enliven the peripheries of this otherwise deep rose Gem cent. Shimmering reflectivity in the fields contrasts boldly with the softly frosted texture of the devices. Fully struck and expertly preserved, this delightful Gem Proof would make an outstanding addition to a high quality collection.
The Mint employed only a single die pair to produce approximately 725 Proof Indian cents in 1867. On the obverse, a thin die scratch from the second diamond on the ribbon extends into Liberty's neck and there is a tiny die chip in the hair above Liberty's ear. The reverse is the same as that used to strike Proof 1865 Snow-PR1 and all Proof 1866 cents; in this marriage it has a tiny die file mark from the denticles at 6 o'clock that was likely imparted when Mint employees repolished the die after its use in 1866. Like all early Proof bronze Indian cent issues, the 1867 is rare in Gem condition, especially with the bold cameo finish offered here. Outstanding!
