1866 Shield Nickel, PR67 Deep Cameo
The Ultimate Rays Type Coin

1866 5C Rays PR67 Deep Cameo PCGS. An incredibly eye-appealing example of this short-lived Rays type, showing brilliant surfaces characterized by deep reflectivity in the fields and satiny luster on the devices. Cameo contrast is readily apparent on both sides, complementing pristine preservation. The 1866 Rays Shield nickel is a great rarity in Deep Cameo quality, with only four pieces so designated at PCGS. This example is the sole finest of those. The ultimate Registry Set candidate, in a class by itself. Population: 1 in 67 Deep Cameo, 0 finer (3/22).
