Description

1866 5C Rays MS65 NGC. The 1866 Rays first-year nickel issue can be obtained for a price in Gem condition, but finer-graded examples are elusive. The present MS65 example offers satiny nickel-gray surfaces with glimpses of pinkish-gold in the center obverse. The strike is good, with radiant luster throughout.
