拍品描述： 1885 Indian Cent. Proof-66 BN (PCGS).An exquisite gem that exhibits vivid salmon-pink undertones to the obverse, cobalt blue on the reverse. Dominant olive-copper patina is bolder on the latter side, the surfaces smooth and semi-reflective throughout. The Mint produced 3,790 Proof cents in 1885, an unusually large number given that only 930 of these coins were needed for the years silver Proof sets. Much of the mintage was undoubtedly sold to dealers for face value at the end of the year. One of the principal dealers active in this speculation was Philadelphia-based David U. Proskey, who amassed hundreds of each Proof Indian cent issue from 1879 to 1909.PCGS# 2342. NGC ID: 22A6.From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911.
