Description

1877 Shield Nickel, PR64
Important Key Issue

1877 5C PR64 PCGS. Ex: Teich Family Collection. A touch of champagne-gold toning resides on the mirrored surfaces of this scarce, proof-only date. The devices are sharply struck and have some mint frost (but not enough for a Cameo designation). The surfaces show no significant marks other than a few grade-limiting hairlines, as often found on proofs of this era.

The 1877 proof nickel -- along with its successor, the 1878 proof-only issue -- form a one-two punch of scarce dates eagerly sought by collectors of the series.
From The Teich Family Collection.(Registry values: N1793)
