Proof Three Cent Nickels
1865 3CN PR66 Deep Cameo PCGS. The date is multiply repunched, similar to Flynn RPD-001. A huge mintage of more than 11 million circulation strikes did not carry over to proofs, which show a scant Guide Book mintage of just 500+ pieces. Of the few proofs struck, only a select group of Deep or Ultra Cameo examples are known. Pale gold patina does not inhibit the contrast between jet-black mirrored fields and the smoothly frosted devices. This is a sharply struck, richly attractive Premium Gem. Population: 10 in 66 (1 in 66+) Deep Cameo, 2 finer (6/17).
