1877 Shield Nickel, PR66
Proof-Only Key Issue

1877 5C PR66 PCGS. CAC. A key date in the Shield nickel series, the 1877 is a proof-only issue with a mintage of only 510 pieces. This is one of the most attractive examples we have seen recently of this important date. The surfaces are toned light rose and sky-blue over both sides. The obverse fields show moderate depth of reflectivity, but the reverse is shallowly mirrored. A carefully preserved Gem with no distractions of note. Population: 39 in 66 (1 in 66+), 1 finer. CAC: 11 in 66, 2 finer (1/18).
