1883 Shield Nickel, PR67 Cameo
High-Grade Last-Year Type Coin

1883 5C PR67 Cameo PCGS. Filling shows in many of the peripheral obverse letters and both 8s in the date on this Superb Gem Cameo proof 1883 Shield nickel, an attractive example of this last-year-of-the-series issue. Thick mint frost, fine preservation, and considerable field reflectivity account for the grade. The year 1883 was the "three-nickel year" in which one Shield and two Liberty nickel types were struck. This is a great type coin. Population: 11 in 67 (1 in 67+) Cameo, 0 finer (3/15).(Registry values: N2998)
