Description
1883 Shield Nickel, PR66 Ultra Cameo
One of Three Ultra Cameos Known
1883 5C PR66 Ultra Cameo NGC. The year 1883 was transitional
for the five cent denomination, with the final production of the
original shield and stars design and the introduction of a new
Liberty head and wreath motif by the hand of Charles Barber, who
had assumed the post of Chief Engraver only a few years prior.
Proofs were minted of both the Shield nickel and the new Liberty
nickel. This Ultra Cameo Premium Gem example of the former displays
needle-sharp definition and stark white-on-black cameo contrast.
The preservation is outstanding. Census: 3 in 66 Ultra Cameo (1 in
66+), 0 finer (12/19).(Registry values: P1)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 276Z, PCGS# 93838, Greysheet# 2985)
Weight: 5.00 grams
Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
