Losbeschreibung

Blushes of powder blue and pinkish-apricot iridescence enliven softly frosted luster on both sides of this appealing Gem. Trailing only the 1885, the 1886 is the second rarest circulation strike in the Liberty Head nickel series. Both issues were largely overlooked by contemporary collectors, and by the time the numismatic community took notice of the low mintage (3,326,000 pieces) 1886 most survivors had long since acquired wear from circulation. The present example is a scarce, attractive Gem that is sure to sell for a strong bid.
