Superb 1871 Three Cent Nickel--The Finest Coin Certified by PCGS

1871 3CN MS67 PCGS. This is the only PCGS certified 1871 three cent nickel in MS67, and it is only rivaled by an NGC coin of the same grade. This is the second time we have handled this coin and we are equally as impressed this time as we were when we saw it previously. The surfaces are untoned, brilliant, and nearly flawless. The striking details are razor sharp with complete definition on the Roman Numeral III on the reverse. An exceptional business strike of this heavily circulated coin, of which only 604,000 pieces were produced.
From the Bruce Scher #1 All-Time PCGS Registry Set.(#3737) (Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22NN, PCGS# 3737, Greysheet# 2773)
