Description

1868 Shield Nickel in Aluminum, PR64
Rare Judd-636 Off-Metal Striking

1868 5C Five Cents, Judd-636, Pollock-708, Low R.7, PR64 NGC. The Shield nickel regular-issue dies of 1868, struck in aluminum with a plain edge. To our view, while all of the aluminum patterns of 1868 are quite rare, those with the unusual, one-off designs -- the Indian cent, two cent piece, three cent "nickel," three cent "silver," Shield nickel, and three dollar "gold" -- in aluminum possess a special cachet. This aluminum Shield nickel would certainly round out an advanced set. The bright, lustrous gray-white surfaces are problem-free with great eye appeal.
Ex: Treasury Secretary Hugh McCulloch (circa 1868); McCulloch family; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society (Heritage, 11/2014), lot 3444.
