Not Sold Description
Starkly Contrasted 1868 Three Cent Nickel
PR65 Ultra Cameo
1868 3CN PR65 Ultra Cameo NGC. Astonishing contrast is
present on each side. The surfaces are completely brilliant and the
white-on-black just could not be more pronounced. Of course, the
1868 is also one of the low-mintage proofs from this decade with an
estimated 600 pieces struck. The obverse shows a very unusual trait
on proof coins, there are roller marks present that were not struck
out of the finished coin. Some silver dollars from the 1890s show
this, but no other proofs come to mind where this is present.
Obviously rare with this degree of contrast, as one can tell from
the population data. Population: 3 in 65 Ultra Cameo, 6 pieces are
finer (3/10).(Registry values: P3)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 275N, PCGS# 93764, GSID# 2801)
