Description
1882 Shield Nickel, Softly Toned PR68
Great Technical Quality and Aesthetic Appeal
1882 5C PR68 NGC. With a production of 3,100 pieces, the
1882 proof nickel can be located in most grades as NGC and PCGS
have graded several hundred specimens. Examples in the lofty grade
of PR68 are another matter; the two services have seen only five
pieces so graded. An impeccably preserved specimen with a thin veil
of milky steel-violet patina has a soft, muting effect on the
overall reflectivity, but in no way diminishes its technical merits
and aesthetic apeal. This coin will be the hallmark of a Shield
nickel collection. Census: 4 in 68, 0 finer (4/14).Ex: CSNS Signature Sale (Heritage, 5/2004), lot 6136.
