Description
1865 Three Cent Nickel in Copper
Judd-413, PR65 Red Ultra Cameo
1865 3C Three Cent Nickel, Judd-413, Pollock-484, R.6-7, PR65
Red Ultra Cameo NGC. From regular issue dies, but struck in
copper with a plain edge. These pieces are now believed to have
been deliberately struck by the Mint for sale to collectors. More
than a dozen examples are known, and pieces were also produced in
oroide and aluminum. Two different obverse dies were used to strike
the copper pieces, according to examination of several pieces by
Heritage cataloger, Brian Koller. This example is from the more
frequently seen die that shows prominent repunching on the digits
in the date. Each side is full red and undimmed by the passage of
the years. Strong cameo contrast is evident between the mirrored
fields and thickly frosted devices.From The Collection of William Rau.
