1893 5C, CAM PR (PCGS#83891)

Spring 2023 U.S. Coins Auction

Lot Description: 1893 Liberty Head Nickel. Proof-66 Cameo (PCGS). CAC. A dusting of pale silver tinting to the obverse does not interfere with one's appreciation of a boldly cameoed finish for this expertly produced, carefully preserved Gem. As with the 1891 and 1892, the 1893 is a scarcer Proof nickel of its era, the mintage relatively limited at 2,195 pieces and survivorship low due to a downturn in the contemporary numismatic market. Among the finer certified in the PCGS CAM category, the offered coin is a delight to behold and worthy of serious bidder consideration. Provenance: From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911. To view all items from the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911 click here.
