Highly Popular 1877 Three Cent Nickel, Proof 66 Cameo PCGS

There is no toning on either side, a feature that allows full appreciation of the glowing fields and their degree of contrast with the frosty textured devices. Sharply struck throughout with no singularly distracting marks or hairlines to report. A few tiny carbon speckles are noted on the obverse device.
