1904 Indian Cent. Snow-PR1. Misplaced Date. Proof-66 RD Cameo (PCGS).Blushes of iridescent salmon pink are seen over otherwise golden-orange surfaces on both sides of this beautiful premium Gem. It is a fully struck specimen with an uncommon degree of field to device contrast for a Proof Indian cent from the 20th century. According to Rick Snow (2014), the Mint used two pairs of dies to produce 1,817 Proof cents in 1904. Interestingly, both are Misplaced Date varieties, Snow-PR1 with the top of an errant 9 in the denticles below the primary digit. Obviously an early die state example given the Cameo designation from PCGS, this impressive strike and condition rarity will be just right for another advanced collection.From the ESM Collection.
