Shield Nickels
1866 5C Rays MS65 PCGS. CAC. The date is recut on this piece -- the same obverse as FS-901 but paired to a different reverse that is not damaged below the 5. The obverse is also in a much later die state, showing such bold clash marks that almost every design element from the reverse is impressed into the obverse fields. On the reverse, no prominent clash marks are seen, but cracks and die buckling are evident at 4 o'clock. The central devices show some strike weakness. Both sides are brilliant and satiny with no major abrasions.
