Lot Description

Of the nearly 11.5 million nickels struck in 1882, this marvelous MS67+ is tied with just a SINGLE example for FINEST GRADED honors! Blazing nickel silver luster booms all over, swirling with an intense brilliance. Both sides are wonderfully dusted over with a clear, icy blue, light gold, and soft peachy-rose hue. The fields are incredibly smooth, free of any distracting marks of any kind, and they are blanketed by a very pleasing dusting of the palest pastel iridescent tones. The eye appeal is simply AMAZING and this coin has to be the finest of the two. PCGS 11, NGC 7, CAC 6. PCGS has graded just two in MS67+ and the other example sold in June 2018 for $26,400. The PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $28,500. A trophy for the collector who demands the absolutely FINEST for their set! Good luck! Cert. Number 38821353 PCGS # 3812.00
