<B>1860 1C PR65 PCGS.</B></I> This exquisitely struck and nearly unabraded Gem has reflective fields, with a hint of satin luster. A few tiny carbon flecks on the central reverse deny a higher grade. The <I>Guide Book</B></I> reports a mintage of 1,000 pieces, but a majority of this production was melted as unsold, and high-grade survivors are rare. There is considerable cameo contrast, although unacknowledged on the PCGS encapsulation. Population: 33 in 65, 7 finer (1/08).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> James B.
