Description du lot

4 graded PR-67+, 2 higher at PCGS. The Scotsman Cataloger's Choice Awardtends to favor coins that are more in line with a typical collector's budget while offering maximum desirability, and that is exactly what one gets with this profoundly beautiful proof three-cent nickel. Let other deep-pocket collectors pursue cameo designations and stars and whizz-bang accolades while you, the astute collector, get to pick up an extremely well preserved, if more basic example that happens to offer beautiful album toning. Delightful, pastel lilac-grey , sunset-yellow and lemon-orange hues surround a brighter center on both sides, creating unusually appealing two-sided bull's-eye effect.
