- The Only PCGS-Certified Cameo Proof 1889 Cent
A Beautiful Premium Gem
1889 Indian Cent. Snow-PR3. Proof-66 RD Cameo (PCGS).
This outstanding strike and condition rarity is sure to find its way into another important Proof Indian cent collection. Both sides are awash in vivid deep orange color, with some blushes of vivid pinkish-rose iridescence visible under a light. The cameo contrast is bold, and the strike is razor sharp over even the most trivial design elements. Proof small cent production at the Philadelphia Mint in 1889 amounted to 3,336 coins. Of this issue Flying Eagle and Indian cent specialist Rick Snow (2014) states: "Gems are very difficult to locate and pieces with cameo contrast are very rare." This summarizes the rarity and significance of this remarkable Proof-66 RD Cameo, unique in this category at PCGS as of this writing.
Provenance: From the ESM Collection. Earlier from Heritage's Palm Beach Signature Sale of November 2004, lot 5363.
PCGS Population: 1 in all grades in the Cameo category.
PCGS# 82356. NGC ID: 2732.
