Shield Nickels
1870 5C MS66+ PCGS. The 1870 had a moderate mintage of 4.8 million examples, and it ranks ninth scarcest in overall rarity in the series. This Plus-designated Premium Gem displays bright nickel-gray luster and faint hints of ice-blue toning on its satiny surfaces. A few trivial carbon flecks can be seen with a loupe, but do not affect the overall appearance or appeal of this high-end Shield nickel. Population: 40 in 66 (4 in 66+), 0 finer (6/17).
