Lot Description

1868 Shield Nickel. Proof-65 Cameo (PCGS). CAC. Enchanting semi-reflective fields support softly frosted, satin-textured devices, the interplay between these two features explaining the coveted Cameo designation from PCGS. A nicely preserved Gem that ranks among the finer certified survivors of this third-year Proof Shield nickel issue. From an unknown mintage that Q. David Bowers (2006) estimates at 750 to 1,000 coins. PCGS# 83822. NGC ID: 276J. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
