Description
1866 Nickel, PR66 Cameo
First Year of Issue
1866 5C Rays PR66 Cameo NGC. Proof 1866 Shield nickels with
the Rays reverse were struck after June 1 of that year, so only
silver proof sets sold after that date contained the proof 1866
Rays nickel. Sets sold earlier in the year did not have the nickel,
although individual proof nickels were sold for ten cents starting
in June 1866. For that reason, any production estimate for proof
1866 nickels is only a guess. This is a brilliant, boldly
contrasted Cameo example with faintly speckled patina and a
needle-sharp strike. Richly frosted devices provide exceptional eye
appeal. Census: 33 in 66 Cameo (3 in 66+, 2 in 66★ ), 14
finer (3/23).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 276G, PCGS# 83817, Greysheet# 2890)
Weight: 5.00 grams
Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
