Description

1869 Shield Nickel, PR67 Cameo
Nicely Contrasted, Rare Thus

1869 5C PR67 Cameo NGC. With a proof mintage estimated between 850 and 1,100 pieces, finding an 1869 proof nickel is not much of a problem. It is a BIG problem to locate one in Superb Gem condition and with cameo contrast. Combining the certification from both of the major services, only three pieces have been so graded (1 at PCGS, 2 at NGC). This seemingly brilliant proof shows just the faintest trace of golden color when closely examined. Fully struck, contact-free surfaces.
From The Black Bay Collection.(Registry values: P2)
