1867 No Rays Shield Nickel, PR64 Cameo
FS-1902, Rare Pattern Reverse

1867 5C No Rays, Pattern Reverse, FS-1902, PR64 Cameo NGC. CAC. The prototype (pattern) reverse of the 1867 No Rays proof shows a star pointing to the first A in AMERICA. Proofs from the regular reverse show the same star pointing between the AM. Proofs struck with the pattern reverse are not patterns, though, but are in fact regular issue proofs and were distributed in the first proof sets of the year. Today, 1867 No Rays proof Shield nickels from the pattern reverse are rare. PCGS reports only 14 examples in all grades, including possible duplications, and NGC has seen six (8/20). This near-Gem Cameo is sharp and well contrasted, yielding russet-gold toning and excellent preservation for the grade. Census: 1 in 64 Cameo, 4 finer (8/20).
