Lot Description

1893 Liberty Head Nickel. MS-66+ (PCGS). CAC. Overall fully struck, this impressive Gem also sports full mint luster, smooth surfaces and delicate champagne-gold iridescence. Although Mint State survivors from this 13,368,000-piece circulation strike issue are readily obtainable in an absolute sense, poor definition and inferior luster quality conspire to keep most examples in lower grades through MS-64. This, then, is a true strike and condition rarity that is sure to please even the most discerning Liberty Head nickel enthusiast. PCGS Population: just 6; with a single MS-67 finer. PCGS# 3854. NGC ID: 2778. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
