1907 Indian Head Cent
Certified Brown Percentage: 25%
Certified Red and Brown Percentage: 60%
Certified Red Percentage: 14.5%
Certified Cameo Percentage: 0.5%
One of the scarcest late date Proof Indian cent issues, the 1907 has the lowest mintage for the type since 1877. Only 1,475 Proofs were struck, 575 of which were sold as part of the year's silver Proof sets and 900 as part of the two-piece minor coin Proof sets. Elusive in the full Red category even without a cameo finish, CAM-designated specimens are exceedingly rare with just four grading events reported by PCGS and none from NGC.
The example to the left was sold by Stack's Bowers Galleries in the August 2019 Rosemont ANA Auction, where it realized $5,040.
