1882 Three Cent Nickel, PR68
Tied for the Finest Certified
1882 3CN PR68 NGC. The reasoning behind a coin of the three
cent denomination is uncertain, although it is sometimes said that

early 1850s. The first examples were struck in silver, and later
emissions were in a copper and nickel alloy. This gorgeous light
gray Superb Gem proof has delicate rainbow iridescence. A coin
destined for a world-class cabinet. Census: 8 in 68, 0 finer
