1877 Indian Cent. Snow-PR3. Proof-66 BN (PCGS).This vividly toned beauty exhibits vivid undertones of cobalt blue and deep rose to dominant antique copper patina. The surfaces are smooth and attractive, and the strike is exceptionally well executed for this often poorly produced die marriage. Snow-PR3 is a scarce variety of the Proof 1877 Indian cent, comprising only about 20% of survivors for the issue (per Rick Snow, 2014). It is most readily attributable by the presence of a tiny die dot on Libertys neck. One of the most eagerly sought issues in the entire Proof Indian cent series, the 1877 is associated by date with the low mintage, conditionally challenging circulation strike 1877. This upper end Gem Proof would do nicely in any advanced collection.PCGS Population: 7; 0 finer in this category.
