Lot 65
1872 Indian Head Cent. PCGS graded Proof 64 Red. A "blazer" in full mint red with a few flyspecks scattered about. Only about 950 proofs were made. In an old green holder.
The 1872 proof issue was struck in about the same quantities as the other dates in the early 1870's, but for some reason, are much scarcer than other dates in gem full red grades. Most of the encountered examples are some shade of red brown. There is strong additional date demand for this issue due to the rarity of the non-proof format issues.
Estimated Value $1,800 - 190.
