    Neither conserved nor doctored, unlike many if not most 3CS proofs in "problem free" PCGS slabs (yes, most).
    Tiny 3,000 mintage plus 1,000 proofs, second lowest of all business strikes and third lowest total. Many tallied in the population reports are resubmissions or crossovers of the same coins.
    Vastly undervalued "Superkey" date. For proof (no pun intended), see our 90% buyback guarantee above.
    Few marks for PR63. CAMEO under the original toning. Could upgrade after a dip but we prefer originality.
    Almost all non-doctored 3CS proofs are darkly toned because, due to slow sales, most languished for years at the Philly Mint, which was then a block from the toning-causing Delaware River.
    One of our favorite proof series due to the ultra-low mintages of many business strikes and their proof counterparts, low prices, and collectibility.
    PR67 CAMEO by third-tier slab and online/mail-order retail standards, especially after the usual doctoring.
    PCGS heavily markets BILLION-mintage modern coins, which creates artificial demand, grossly inflated prices, and GIGANTIC profits. But PCGS ignores this 1,000-mintage key trime because it is far too rare to promote and from which to profit, so demand and thus prices stay absurdly low.
    Seriously, ,500 PCGS Price Guide for a 5.4 BILLION-mintage 1975 penny in two grades below MS70? We would not pay for it.
    But PCGS Price Guide is just ,150 for this 1,000-mintage key?
    Most modern coins can be bought at or near face value, melt value, or Mint-issue price; placed in a plastic slab (PCGS bulk rate); and sold for hundreds or thousands of dollars. But try doing that with with this 1,000-mintage key. 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 expenses, as we will for this rare coin. Or even 10%.
