Proof Three Cent Nickels
1868 3CN PR66+ Deep Cameo PCGS. CAC. Deep Cameo examples of the 1868 proof are scarce, and this high-end Premium Gem is among the finest at PCGS and CAC. Dramatic cameo contrast is produced by thick, frost-white motifs and deeply mirrored fields. A hint of pale champagne toning is discernible on each side. The strike is sharp on the obverse and lacking only slight definition on the Roman numerals of the reverse. Population: 14 in 66 (5 in 66+) Deep Cameo, 0 finer. CAC: 15 in 66, 0 finer (1/17).
