Description
1867 Shield Nickel, MS65
Rays Variety
1867 5C Rays MS65 NGC. The brilliant, essentially
nickel-white surfaces show numerous die cracks on both sides,
evidence that those dies saw long service. The reverse die in
particular must have shattered soon after this piece was struck, as
the area around AMERICA shows about eight radiating cracks, a
couple of them heavy. Further attesting to the die overuse is the
lack of field-device contrast, which on this coin actually enhances
the appearance of a consistent Gem striking. A lovely, interesting
survivor. Census: 50 in 65, 10 finer (7/10).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22NY, PCGS# 3791, GSID# 2869)
