Liberty Nickels
1894 5C MS65+ PCGS. CAC. Apricot-gold, olive-green, and lilac-red shades embrace this pristine and lustrous high-end Gem -- the only Plus-graded Gem at PCGS (1/17). The stars and the left ear of corn show typical weakness. The 1894 is a lower-mintage date that is rarely seen finer. Population: 57 in 65 (1 in 65+), 41 finer. CAC: 11 in 65, 13 finer (1/17).
Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 9/2012), lot 3631.
