<B>1858 1C Large Letters PR65 PCGS. CAC.</B></I> Snow-PR1. Tiny die markers appear at the top of the denticles beneath the first 8 and 5 in the date. Snow characterizes this as a Doubled Die Obverse, because of minor doubling (not strike doubling) that appear on UNI, although it is faint. The reverse is the High Leaves die. Snow notes that this issue is "very rare," estimating that perhaps 100 proofs were struck, including both minor proof sets and individual pieces. This piece offers wonderful golden-tan coloration, along with a razor-sharp strike and some cameo contrast on the reverse. A nice one, and among the finest at PCGS!
