Description: Mintage 700, lowest from 1870 to today (tied with 1875). Repunched "4" in date. β 90% BUYBACK GUARANTEE: Within three years from payment, we will repurchase this choice coin for at least 90% of the purchase price, less Ebay/PayPal fees, sales tax, and postage.

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. Tiny 700 mintage (some were spent, melted, mutilated, lost, buried, thrown into fountains, etc.). Many tallied in the population reports are resubmissions or crossovers of the same coins. Despite being free from the usual doctoring, nearly full red under a grader's light, as PCGS graders view coins and as the posted PCGS photos prove. Few and light marks for PR64RB. Boldly struck. CAMEO reverse, obverse nearly so. TRADE SECRET: Easily PR68 RED CAMEO by third-tier slab and raw standards even without the usual doctoring. We know of many dealers who have become fabulously wealthy from grossly over-grading high-end rarities like this. Ask your third-tier dealer if he will buy back for 90% less selling fees. Or even 10%. Never doctored, unlike many 1874 proof cents in "problem free" PCGS slabs. Dealers and PCGS heavily market BILLION-mintage modern coins, which creates artificial demand, grossly inflated prices, and GIGANTIC profits. But they ignore this 700-mintage key because it is far too rare to promote and from which to profit, so demand and thus prices stay absurdly low. Seriously, $10,500 PCGS Price Guide for a 5.4 BILLION-mintage 1975 penny in two grades below MS70? And $10,000 for a "rare" 4.5 BILLION-mintage 1975-D cent in the same imperfect grade? We would not pay $5 for either. But we ask just $999 for this 700-mintage #1 key proof from 1870 to today? Most modern coins can be bought at or near face value, melt value, or Mint-issue price; placed in a $4 plastic slab (PCGS bulk rate); and sold for hundreds or even thousands of dollars. But try doing that with with this 700-mintage #1 key proof from 1870 to today. We only deal in truly rare coins, not fabricated illusions designed to make coin dealers rich. Ask your modern coin dealer if he will buy back for 90% less seller's fees, as we will for this rare coin. Or even 1%.
