Description
1866 Shield Nickel, PR67+ Ultra Cameo
Quintessential Proof Rays Type Coin
1866 5C Rays PR67+ Ultra Cameo NGC. CAC. JD-1, Low R.3. The
Rays design type was only produced in 1866 and 1867. While both
issues are known in proof format, the 1867 proof is a major rarity
in any grade, leaving type collectors with only one viable option:
the 1866 proof. The first-year proof is usually available in low
and middle grades but becomes conditionally rare in high grade.
Superb Gem Ultra Cameo pieces are notably rare overall, and the
present coin -- Plus designated by NGC -- is the sole coin in this
grade and category to bear CAC approval.Brilliant, deeply reflective fields complement softly frosted, sharp devices. Neither side exhibits bothersome contact marks, and the overall eye appeal is simply marvelous. Census: 5 in 67 Ultra Cameo (3 in 67+), 0 finer. CAC: 1 in 67, 0 finer (11/23).
