The mintage drops a bit to 1,790 for the 1903 proof Indian Cent; yet it is still too high to be anything more than a type coin. Very common with the brown color designation. Gradually more scarce in red-brown especially in PR66 or finer. Red gems are rare and any cameo is rare as well. Beautifully toned brown pieces or blazing red surfaces are the quite desirable and not too tough to find.
