1868 Three Cent Nickel, PR66 Deep Cameo
Low-Mintage Proof Date

1868 3CN PR66 Deep Cameo PCGS. CAC. A stunning Premium Gem Deep Cameo proof from the early three cent nickel era. Only 600 or so proofs were produced of the 1868 in proof format. Dates prior to the mid-1870s usually had little or no contrast, and any Deep Cameo example is extremely rare. This piece has wonderful field-to-device contrast with brilliant light gray surfaces. Population: 3 in 66 Deep Cameo (2 in 66+ Deep Cameo), 0 finer (1/12).
