1886 5C MS (PCGS#3847)

The Regency Auction 33

Lot Description: Whoa! This coin will stop you in your tracks! We have NEVER seen an 1886 nickel in such a high grade. The 86 is one of the KEYS to the series, always sought regardless of condition. A SUPERB coin like this is essentially incomprehensible! Tied with just a single coin for FINEST graded at either service, Legend Rare Coin Auctions is proud to present it in its full glory. A blinding cartwheel luster glows white hot on both sides. A delicate pastel rainbow iridescent tone can be seen near the peripheries blending to an icy silver-nickel-blue and clear gold in the centers. Sharply struck on both sides from a pair of shattered dies, spidery die cracks can be seen throughout the legends adding character to this beauty's stunning visual allure. Using a strong loupe we can only see a few minor mint made planchet flakes, but there really is nothing to detract from the SUPERB eye appeal. PCGS 3, NGC 1. PCGS has a price of $74,000 on CoinFacts. Really, though a price guide value is useless when the top Registry Set collectors battle it out to add this monster to their sets. Be prepared to see a record price for an 1886 nickel! Cert.
