Liberty Nickels
1896 5C MS66 PCGS. CAC. A cool-blue nickel of stunning eye appeal. As a date, the 1896 does not stand out from its peers until reaching the Premium Gem grade level, where examples of the issue are rarely seen. This CAC-approved piece displays satiny champagne-gold luster with cool powder-blue accents throughout. The corn ear to the left of the wreath bow and a couple obverse stars are weakly defined, but the strike is otherwise pleasing. No distracting abrasions are present. PCGS reports no numerically finer pieces. Population: 23 in 66 (3 in 66+), 0 finer. CAC: 11 in 66, 0 finer (10/16).
