Description
1885 Three Cent Nickel, AU50
Lightly Circulated Key Date
1885 3CN AU50 PCGS. The 1885 three cent nickel is among
those curious American numismatic issues that we consider
"upside-down," where the circulation-strike mintage is smaller --
far smaller, in this case -- than the proof mintage, 1,000 pieces
versus 3,790, respectively. This makes the 1885 business strike the
key to the series and a highly pursued issue in grades approaching
Mint State. This AU50 example displays grayish-gold patina with
light, even wear on the high points and some buildup in the obverse
peripheral devices. Population: 4 in 50, 58 finer (6/14).(Registry values: N991)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 275G, PCGS# 3753, GSID# 2786)
Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
