Description
1867 Nickel in Silver
Judd-583, PR55
Likely Unique
1867 5C Five Cent Piece, Judd-583, Pollock-643, R.8, PR55
PCGS. The obverse is similar to the regular-issue three cent
nickel, except the coronet displays a star. The reverse is the same
as the issued 1867 No Rays nickel. Struck in silver with a plain
edge. The muled design is unique in silver, and only two or three
are known in copper. Judd-583 is believed to have been struck
outside of the Mint during the 19th century. Celebrated early
American numismatist Joseph Mickley reportedly acquired the dies
when they were sold as scrap by the Mint. Liberty's hair shows a
hint of wear, presumably from brief service as a pocket piece. Both
sides display dappled golden-brown and cream-gray toning. Housed in
a Generation 3.1 green-label holder.Ex: FUN Auction (RARCOA, 1/73), lot 578; Lynch Collection / Atlanta Signature (Heritage, 8/2001), lot 578.
