Description
1885 Three Cent Nickel, MS64
Lowest Mintage of the Series
1885 3CN MS64 PCGS. The Mint made only a token effort of
1,000 three cent nickels for circulation in 1885, with most
collectors satisfied with a proof of the date. The proof mintage
outnumbered business strikes more than 3 to 1. This softly lustrous
near-Gem is obviously a circulation strike, with thick mint frost
and lilac-gray toning and some deep-gray freckles. Sharply struck
and nicely preserved, such pieces are scarce and highly-sought by
specialists in the series. Population: 16 in 64, 30 finer
(3/16).(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 275G, PCGS# 3753, GSID# 2786)
Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
