Lot Description

1887 Liberty Head Nickel. MS-66+ (PCGS). CAC. This is a gorgeous Gem with a full strike, bountiful luster and virtually pristine surfaces. A dusting of iridescent champagne-pink toning adorns both sides and rounds out a truly memorable list of physical attributes. Although plentiful in an absolute sense, Mint State 1887 nickels are typically encountered with poor striking detail, inferior luster and/or noticeably abraded surfaces. This is a significant condition rarity that would justice to the finest numismatic cabinet. PCGS Population: 4; 3 finer (all MS-67). PCGS# 3848. NGC ID: 22PL.
