Losbeschreibung

A rare and popular Liberty Head three cent nickel pattern designed by Charles Barber. Liberty's head is similar to the one that would be adopted for the five cent nickel two years later. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around, date below. The reverse shows a wreath of cotton and corn surrounding a large Roman numeral III. Struck in copper with a plain edge, this variety is listed as a High Rarity-6. Watery reflective mirrored fields have an an "oil slick" toning pattern on them; the colors seem to float on the sleek, smooth surfaces. The eye appeal is really neat! PCGS 3, NGC 0. The last one sold over a decade ago! The current PCGS Price Guide value is $3,500. Rarely offered, this is a nice coin worthy of a fantastic collection of Pattern three cent nickels or Patterns in general. Cert. Number 21663074 PCGS # 62065
