Proof Three Cent Nickels
1868 3CN PR66 PCGS. CAC. Although a number of Cameos are certified in this and finer grades, the present Premium Gem proof 1868 nickel three cent is tied with just four others as the finest non-Cameo at PCGS (9/17). Sharp, satiny design elements reside amid reflective fields with no hindrance of toning. The obverse alone would arguably qualify for a Cameo designation, although the reverse is less well-contrasted.
