Lot Description
Not only is this SUPERB GEM among the FINEST J-566 known, but it is the ONLY CAMEO graded at PCGS! James Longacre's Liberty Head, similar to the 3 cent nickel. Reverse: Large 5 CENTS in olive branch wreath, small IN GOD WE TRUST above. Struck in nickel with a plain edge. This is a tough R-6-, with 21-30 minted. Vivid, flashing mirrored fields are the epitome of strong reflection and for a coin struck in nickel, the mirrors have a bold clarity. The devices are fully frosted and stand out with a dramatic and bold eye appeal. The reverse has a dusting of the faintest gold tone that graces the surfaces. A real prize for the specialist and we really like this design! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. In the non-CAM designation, the collector's Universe value is listed at $3,600. As the single FINEST this one should be worth more! Good luck! Cert. Number 36089741 PCGS # 860776
