Remarkable 1868 Shield Nickel
Struck on a Three Cent Nickel Planchet, AU Details

1868 Shield Nickel--Struck on a Three Cent Nickel Planchet, Environmental Damage, Edge Damage--NCS. AU Details. 1.97 gm. A distinctive wrong planchet error from early in the history of the five cent nickel. The detail is weak on this lightly rubbed piece, unsurprising since the planchet is more than 60% lighter than the 5 grams of a normal five cent nickel planchet. NCS cautions for edge damage, not visible in the holder, and environmental damage, visible as green encrustation around parts of the peripheral devices.
