Description
1866 Pattern Shield Nickel. Judd-508, Pollock-592. Rarity-6+. Copper. Plain Edge. Proof-64 BN (PCGS).
Obv: The same design that the Mint used to strike regular issue Shield nickels in 1866. Rev: The No Rays design that the Mint adopted for regular issue Shield nickel production in 1867. Pleasing mahogany brown dominates the obverse, while soft blue accents add to the visual appeal. The reverse exhibits traces of faded red in the recesses but is largely toned rich blue-green and gold. Some light hairlines on this side and a couple of small imperfections near the lower right rim account for the grade.
PCGS# 60704. NGC ID: 29L7.
From the Knohl Collection. Earlier from our (Bowers and Merena) sale of the Milton G. Cohen Collection, January 1984, lot 498.
