Choice lustrous white surfaces with a touch of color at the rim and the barest ‘rub’ on the high points of the design.

Well struck with crisp white luster and fewer marks than typically seen for the grade.

FS-301. There are several 1883/2 overdate Shield nickel varieties, and the FS-301 is the most popular of those, having the sharpest 2 visible left of the 3 in the date. This is a beautiful example with blazing nickel-white luster with just a very faint golden hue and wonderful eye appeal.

A pleasing example of this better date with a needle-sharp strike and vibrant luster swirling off very choice original surfaces.

Rich satiny white luster over choice minimally abraded surfaces.

Blast white with choice surfaces and strong cameo contrast between the mirrored fields and frosted design features.

Frosty white luster and a sharp strike with silky smooth, nearly mark-free surfaces.

Incredible quality with blast white lustrous surfaces and heavy frost on the design. Nearly mark-free with a great strike.

CAC. Blast white except for a touch of edge toning at the 12:00 on the obverse and 6:00 on the reverse. The strike is needle-sharp and the design elements are coated in heavy white frost.
