1877 Shield Nickel, PR64
Low Mintage, Proof Issue

1877 5C JD-2, High R.3, PR64 PCGS. There were only three proof-only years for the Shield nickel, with 1877 having the lowest mintage at just 900 pieces. This boldly struck example displays warm-frosted silver luster with no notable abrasions that would detract from the coin's appeal. At Choice preservation, the piece is an exceptional type coin for this scant proof issue.
