Not Sold Description
Popular 1886 Nickel, MS66
1886 5C MS66 PCGS. Though it is not so elusive as its 1885 business-strike counterpart, the 1886 is highly desirable nonetheless, particularly in finer Mint State grades. Attractive examples are hard to come by, which makes the appearance of the present coin all the more remarkable. Delicate nickel-blue and peach shadings grace parts of this delightful Premium Gem. Immensely lustrous beneath the toning and well-defined on the portrait, though the stars and wreath show trifling softness. PCGS has graded only four coins as MS66, and neither NGC nor PCGS has ever certified a Superb Gem (6/08).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22PK, PCGS# 3847, GSID# 2951)
