1857 Large Cent. Small Date. N-5. Low Rarity-5 as a Proof. Proof-66 RB NGC.

Deep and fiery sunset-orange surfaces enjoy warm rose iridescence on the high points. The devices are all sharply presented, and visual disturbances are essentially lacking, even with a loupe. Though not the greatest rarity among the Braided Hair Proof large cents, this particular 1857 Small Date Proof cent is among the finest seen by NGC of any date. Indeed, it’s the finest Proof example of the date certified by NGC within any color designation! How big a part Condition Rarity plays when this Gem Proof large cent takes front and center remains to be seen, though we suggest the sky’s the limit here.
NGC Census: 1; none finer within any color designation.
