1866 Gem Brilliant Proof. Handsome red-brown surfaces show a clear predominance of gleaming red on this glittering Gem. One of a small Proof mintage of 725, a fascinating contrast to the vastly greater issues of the later Indian dates. This coin would be hard to duplicate for perfection of strike, bold detail and exceptional color. This coin is destined to be the centerpiece of some great collection. PCGS PR65RB.
