详细说明

1862 Indian Cent. Proof-67 Cameo (NGC). Vibrant and bright, with ample frost on the devices of Liberty and the wreath, as well as the lettering and date. The color is light nickel-tan with a hint of golden iridescence, and completely free of&nbsp;spots and just a hint of carbon exists. The strike is precise and full. No handling marks of any consequence are seen and the eye appeal is incredible for this early Proof cent. While the mintage is unknown what provides guidance today is the combined <em>Census</em> and <em>Population Reports </em>of NGC and PCGS respectively. Both services combined record 674 grading events, with some room for duplication likely reducing this number offsetting some unknown number of coins not yet certified. Unquestionably one of the very finest known today, with just one single coin reported finer at NGC.
