Description

1865 Three Cent Nickel, PR65 Cameo
First Date of Design

1865 3CN PR65 Cameo PCGS. The date is widely repunched. The year 1865 was the first date of issue for the three cent nickel, and a small proof mintage of only 400+ coins was achieved. Today the issue is quite scarce at the Gem level. The present coin is sharply struck, with reflective fields and a high degree of contrast, culminating in the Cameo designation. Attractive hints of green, golden-brown, and lilac accent the surfaces. Population: 23 in 65 Cameo, 23 finer (6/10).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 275K, PCGS# 83761, GSID# 2791)

Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
Weight: 1.94 grams
Weight: 0.05132oz
