拍品描述： 1863 Indian Head Cent--Deep Obverse Die Cap--MS-65 (PCGS). Undoubtedly unique and of incredible quality for such an important, early mint error. This single planchet somehow stuck to the obverse die and was struck multiple times, pushing the outer rim of the planchet up around the die and forming a die cap. Even so, the surfaces are exceptional, with golden tan and bronze toning across each side. The reverse shows considerable deformation from the multiple strikes, with ONE CENT much too large and framed by an enlarged wreath of laurel leaves. A rippled texture dominates the reverse complexion, appearing almost like the Matte Proof issues of the early 20th century. The obverse fields are lightly prooflike and contrast the incredibly sharp and frosty portrait of Liberty. While similar obverse die cap errors are known for 1859 and 1862, this appears to be the unique example from the 1863 issue. it is both dramatic and impressively preserved, representing an important opportunity for both Mint Error enthusiasts and Indian Head cent specialists.
