Lot Description

1886 Liberty Head Nickel. MS-64 (NGC). This appealing near-Gem combines a modestly semi-prooflike obverse with a satiny reverse. The former side is lightly toned in iridescent champagne-gold, the latter more boldly patinated in a blend of pewter gray and golden-olive. With a relatively limited mintage of 3,326,000 coins, the 1886 is a key date issue among circulation strike Liberty Head nickels that enjoys strong collector demand in all Mint State grades. PCGS# 3847. NGC ID: 22PK. Click here for certification details from NGC.
