详细说明: An attractive Gem quality Indian Cent that boasts reflective fields and lovely reliefs. Overall the coin has a purple hue mingling with the rich brown. Some hints of Mint red add to this melange of color and only a small mark near the U is noted. PCGS 5, NGC 5, CAC 3. Only 700 proofs were struck in 1874 and this is one of the finest BN specimens certified by PCGS. It’s rare that Gem quality brown coins appear at auction, with the most recent auction record for a PR65BN being September 2006, which, based on photos looks more RD than BN and brought a respectable $1,380.00. That example aside, no other PR65BN examples have been offered in auction. Other points of reference: in June 2013 a PCGS PR65 RB CAC sold for $1,175.00 and more recently in July 2014, an NGC PR66 BN brought $823.00. An important opportunity for collectors of colorfully toned Proof Indian Cents! PCGS # 2309 Certification Number 32839948 PCGS # 2309
