Proof Three Cent Nickels
1883 3CN PR67+ Cameo NGC. CAC. A limited mintage of circulation strikes (just 4,000 pieces struck) is outnumbered by the proofs issued for the 1883 (6,609 proofs minted), putting pressure on proofs to fill openings in high-grade sets. This Superb Gem contrasted proof is suitably high-end for such purposes and displays both the PCGS Plus designation and CAC endorsement. Brilliant with a faint blue sheen over the mirrored fields, the strike is first-rate and the surfaces are essentially without fault. Finer pieces are only subjectively so. Census: 23 in 67 Cameo (1 in 67+, 1 in 67★), 7 finer. CAC: 33 in 67, 1 finer (1/17).
