Lot Description

Among the top ten examples graded by PCGS. A very attractive and conditionally challenging Shield nickel. Sharply struck devices are enlivened by a brilliant, satiny luster and a blush of the softest pastel gold. Interesting die cracks are seen on the obverse, giving this coin a great look. PCGS 8, NGC 3, CAC 3. The last PCGS MS66 CAC sold for $5,520 back in the 2018 FUN auction. The PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $5,000 and the CAC CPG value is $6,000. There are two in MS66+ finer, we just sold one for $9,988 in our Regency Auction 50, a record. This impressive GEM is worthy of an advanced set. Good luck. Cert. Number 45825061 PCGS # 3801
