Proof Three Cent Nickels
1877 3CN PR65 Cameo NGC. Breen 2437, Flynn RPD-001. A sharply struck and strongly contrasted proof with glassy mirrored fields, this brilliant example shows repunching at the base of the 1 in the date. A die scratch near the stand of the final 7 confirms the variety. With a reported mintage of 900 pieces, only proofs were struck in 1877 and no circulation strikes, making the issue essential for both date and proof series collectors. This beautifully contrasted Gem will enhance any advanced set. Census: 42 in 65 Cameo, 85 finer (11/16).
