Description

1872 Shield Nickel. MS-65 (NGC).
A satiny and smartly impressed example adorned with lovely, brilliant untoned surfaces. Circulation strike nickel production ratcheted up considerably in 1872 with 6,036,000 coins struck (as opposed to just 561,000 pieces for the 1871). This is a plentiful issue in an absolute sense, a favorite among type collectors, although most survivors grade no finer than MS-64. Scarce as a Gem, the present example possesses superior eye appeal and is worthy of the strongest bids.
PCGS# 3799. NGC ID: 22P6.
From the Knohl Collection.
