1877 Shield Nickel, PR65
Elusive Proof-Only Issue

1877 5C PR65 PCGS. No business-strike shield nickels were struck in 1877, but the Philadelphia Mint produced 900 proofs to satisfy collector demand, making the 1877 an elusive key issue in the series. This attractive Gem exhibits sharply detailed design elements and well-preserved surfaces, with reflective fields and outstanding eye appeal. PCGS has graded 53 numerically finer examples (8/20).
From The Maurice Storck Collection. (Registry values: N2998)
