Auction 414 | Lot 601 » Nickels » Liberty Nickels
1887 5C MS66 PCGS. An impressive example that is tied for the finest certified example of this date. Both sides are fully struck, a tall statement for any business strike Liberty nickel. A few scattered surface marks on each side are consistent with the grade. This Gem has fully brilliant nickel-gray surfaces with frosty luster and wonderful eye appeal. Population: 12 in 66, 0 finer (7/06). (PCGS# 3848)

Auction 414 | Lot 602 » Nickels » Liberty Nickels
1896 5C MS65 PCGS. Ex: Friend. This date has long been considered among the scarcest in the entire Liberty nickel series, although price levels are not up to those of the 1885 issue. In Gem condition, this date is equally elusive, if not more so. The surfaces have soft, frosty gray color with wisps of gold on the obverse and bluish-violet color on the reverse. It is remarkably sharp, including full details in the ear of corn at the lower left part of the wreath. Population: 39 in 65, 5 finer (7/06). (PCGS# 3857)

Auction 414 | Lot 610 » Nickels » Liberty Nickels
1912-S 5C MS64 PCGS. Light heather and lilac toning graces each side of this stunning and delightful near-Gem coin, a pleasing example of this first nickel coinage from the San Francisco Mint, from the last year of the type. Although it seems common in U.S. numismatics that oftentimes a new design is introduced at branch mints that had not previously coined that denomination, what is less common is for new branch mints to coin the last years of a series. An interesting challenge might be to collect such pieces in high grade, for example the 1912-D and -S Liberty nickels, the 1908-S and 1909-S Indian cents, the 1891 O-mint dime and quarter issues, the 1921-D Morgan dollar, and the D-mint 1906 and 1907 eagles and double eagles. Are there others? (PCGS# 3875)

1883 5C No Cents PR67 Cameo NGC. Heavily frosted devices and deeply mirrored fields yield a white-on-black appearance. Near-pristine surfaces are essentially devoid of toning, and reveal just a couple of obverse planchet flaws that are barely discernible. The design elements are sharply delineated, except for minor softness in the leaves to the left of the bowknot. Proof strikings of this issue are extremely limited, especially in Superb condition and with the Cameo designation. Census: 12 in 67, none are finer at either service (7/06). (PCGS# 83878)
