1905 Proof Like Indian Head Cent: ANACS MS63 Red

PocketArtPocketArt Posts: 1,335 ✭✭✭✭✭

I collect proof likes; they are my narrowing focus/specialty. This particular series is quite difficult to find a PL specimen. There are only a handful graded PL through NGC...maybe 6? Not sure how many ANACS have graded.

Notice, polish lines on reverse from die. Please feel free to comment, and if you have a PL Indian cent- please post. Thank you!

    Was this one on ebay recently? I think I had it on my watch list. Nice!

    Yes @ChrisH821 it was. I got it a bit cheaper than the offered price. I was concerned it may be a proof that was attributed wrong, but when I received the coin it appeared to me as a PL business strike. Polish lines in fields. Just happy to have her- thought about sending out to NGC...should I, or, just leave entombed in ANACS???

    That is a very nice pickup! Not sure about reholdering though. Looks good the way it is but you’ll do what fits best for your collection.

    That is a very, very nice IHC.... I would leave it as is...Cheers, RickO

    Beautiful coin!

    Thanks for comments! I'd give you all likes; but the forum bug has hit me too and I'm not able to leave likes. When the problem is fixed on the 20th I'll be sure to catch up.

    This Indian cent is the 2nd PL coin I have in an ANACS slab. I also have an Eisenhower Bicentennial PL dollar in the small white slab. I think I'll leave Indian in ANACS slab, as it looks good, and I feel grade is correct.
