1864 Snow PR-1. Copper-Nickel. Gem Brilliant Proof. An outstanding example of this elusive issue. A mere 370 Proofs were struck of the copper-nickel variant. Dusted with minute specks over the vibrant mint color, and the haze of time has had little effect to diminish the delicate reflective fields and frosted devices. A magnificent Gem that will undoubtedly excite even the most jaded numismatist as so few decidedly original pieces cross the auction block in this age of modern numismatics.
