1867 1c PR RD

With 600 coins struck, the 1867 Indian Cent is a much better date in its proof series. Scarce up to gem PR65 at which point high-end gems, red pieces and those with cameo surfaces are very rare. Look for attractively toned brown pieces or blazing red surfaces as they are highly sought after and are not too difficult to locate.
