Pleasing 1878 Three Cent Nickel, PR67 Cameo

1878 3CN PR67 Cameo NGC. CAC. The second of the two proof-only issues in the series, the 1878 three cent nickel is a series key like the 1877 that precedes it. This piece shows the noticeable die lapping around the front of the eye socket and the frosted loops on the last 8 characteristic of the issue. The well-struck silver-gray surfaces show considerable contrast and much appeal. Neither NGC nor PCGS has certified a Cameo example finer (6/09).(Registry values: N2998)
