CAC. A beautiful Gem example of this late-date Shield Nickel, certified MS65 by PCGS and approved by CAC for superior quality. Both obverse and reverse surfaces are satiny and brilliant, displaying strong luster and sharp detail in the shield lines, stars, and wreath. The coin’s frosty surfaces are remarkably clean for the issue, with only […]

Blast white and a needle-sharp strike with nearly perfect surfaces and strong cameo contrast. Amazing quality and tied with two others for the finest graded at PCGS!

Lustrous silver-white surfaces and a bold strike with a touch of high point wear and minimal abrasions. A popular Carson City issue that is particularly elusive in high grade.

A better date with a mintage of just 22,000 and just a handful of mint state survivors. This is a nice borderline uncirculated coin with bright lustrous surfaces and just a trace of high-point friction.

This is a beautiful coin with vibrant mint luster exploding off highly reflective proof-like surfaces. There are minimal […]

A better date as a business strike and a proof with just 950 proofs minted. This is an attractive coin with a needle-sharp strike and reflective brick-red surfaces that have a subtle lime hue.

Solid detail with attractive medium brown surfaces.

CAC. A nice middle-grade example of this scarce date.
