1882 Three Cent Nickel, PR68 Cameo
Among Finest Certified

1882 3CN PR68 Cameo NGC. Unlike 1881, 1882 was a low-mintage date for the three cent nickel. Only 3,100 proofs and 22,200 commercial pieces were struck. In typical proof condition, the 1882 can be obtained readily, but PR68 specimens that demonstrate pleasing white-on-black contrast are undeniably rare. The pristine surfaces show only a whisper of golden toning, along with a horizontal die crack on the reverse at 9 o'clock. Census: 5 in 68 Cameo (1 in 68+), 0 finer (3/20).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2764, PCGS# 83778, Greysheet# 2842)

Weight: 1.94 grams

Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
