Description
Proof-Only 1877 Three Cent Nickel
PR66 Cameo
1877 3CN PR66 Cameo NGC. The 1877 is one of the keys to the
proof series of three cent nickels, along with the 1865 and 1878.
The reason this date is a key lies in its low mintage of
approximately 510 pieces in addition to its proof-only status. This
is an exceptionally beautiful example. The surfaces are brilliant
throughout and the fields are deeply mirrored, which sets up
noticeable cameo contrast against the frosted devices. A shallow
contact mark in the lower left obverse field and a couple of light
specks of carbon are all that keep this lovely coin from an even
higher grade. Census: 47 in 66 Cameo, 15 finer (2/10).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 275X, PCGS# 83773, GSID# 2827)
