Lot 396
1882 Shield Nickel. NGC graded Proof 65. Lightly toned. Only 3,100 Proofs struck. A beauty, with nice snappy nickel-gray underpinning the Gem quality surfaces free of discoloration or injury. From the luster, we next take stock of the details of the design. Given the proper amount of strike pressure on the shield and all wreath elements, the coin was fully brought up by the dies.
Estimated Value $500 - 550.
