Proof Three Cent Nickels
1877 3CN PR67 Cameo NGC. The 1877 three cent nickel was struck in proof format only with a production of just 900 pieces. Cameo examples are collectible in general but rare at the Superb Gem level. This piece displays brilliant surfaces and nice contrast. The strike is sharp. A couple of tiny olive-colored toning spots on the obverse below Liberty's ear and the I in AMERICA, respectively, serve as pedigree markers. Census: 25 in 67 Cameo (1 in 67+, 5 in 67 ★, 1 in 67+★), 2 finer (5/17).
