Description
Lustrous Near-Gem Business Strike
1885 Liberty Nickel, Series Key
1885 5C MS64 PCGS. CAC. The key to the series, particularly
in business strike format, here represented by a lovely olive-gray
near-Gem with good luster and excellent eye appeal. The strike is
close to full, as detail shows even on the pesky left ear of corn
at the lower portion of the reverse wreath. A single mark near the
rim and first S in STATES is the only singular abrasion. There are
numerous interesting die breaks, more prominent on the obverse. One
joins the tip of the bust truncation with stars 1, 2 and nearly to
3; another runs from between stars 3 and 4 to Liberty's forehead,
through the hair and B in LIBERTY, and ending just past the wheat
sheaves. Yet another joins stars 9 and 10 with the rim. On the
reverse, a heavy crack from the rim at 7:30 connects with the lower
devices, and a branch runs upward to join the V in the
center.(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2773, PCGS# 3846, GSID# 2950)
