Description: SPECTACULAR ERROR: Reverse rotated 173ΒΊ, well within the official Mint tolerance for medallic alignment (165ΒΊ to 180ΒΊ). Very rare error on Indian cents. Some dealers add a huge premium but we did not add any. $900 confirmed sale of last PR64BN auctioned, a non-CAC in 2022 (click the fifth image). π΄ 90% BUYBACK GUARANTEE: Within three years from payment, we will repurchase this choice coin for at least 90% of the purchase price, less Ebay fees, postage, and sales tax (if any). Coin and holder must be undamaged. Original buyer only. π΄ GUARANTEED LOWEST PRICE: We will beat any other Ebayer's price by 25% of the difference. Compared coins must be identically certified, aesthetically similar, and in stock. Valid at time of purchase only. Also applies to most of our other certified items. β Green CAC = choice, high-end, possibly under-graded. β Fussy CAC has approved just 6% of all proof Indian cents certified by PCGS and NGC. CAC sticker affixed after slab photo taken (click the third image). PCGS said BN but obverse is 75% original red. But reverse is brown albeit with faint rainbow hues. Fields far more deeply mirrored than most. Boldly struck. Very few and light marks for PR64BN. Non-doctored, unlike many proof Indian cents in "problem free" PCGS slabs. Could easily upgrade after professional conservation (removal of two obverse specks) but we prefer originality over profit. Tiny 600 mintage, lowest from 1868 to today! And some of those few were spent, melted, lost, buried, mutilated, thrown into fountains, etc. Many tallied in the population reports are resubmissions or crossovers of the same coins. The number one key date in proof from 1868 to today, mintage-wise tied with 1869). Vastly undervalued as such especially with the astonishing inverted reverse mint error. Would surely be the centerpiece of many a coin collection. Member of prestigious CDN Exchange (aka Greysheet aka Coinplex) since 2011 and its third highest bidder in dollar volume.
