Losbeschreibung

1872 Shield Nickel. MS-65 (PCGS). A satiny and smartly impressed example adorned with lovely iridescent toning in powder blue and pale golden-gray. Circulation strike nickel production ratcheted up considerably in 1872 with 6,036,000 coins struck (as opposed to just 561,000 pieces for the 1871). This is a plentiful issue in an absolute sense, a favorite among type collectors, although most survivors grade no finer than MS-64. Scarce as a Gem, the present example possesses superior eye appeal and is worthy of the strongest bids. PCGS# 3799. NGC ID: 22P6. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
