Lot Description

Rich mercurial mirrored fields beam from across the room. There is a light icy-blue and clear gold iridescence that really adds the great visual allure of this GEM. PCGS 229, NGC 226, CAC 68. Only 17 of the PCGS graded coins are 66+. The most recent example to sell realized $1,293 in a June 2014 auction, and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $900. A great example of the final Shield nickel issue. Cert. Number 84213689 PCGS # 3838
