1882 Shield Nickel. PCGS graded Proof 67. Nice strike with nice original color. This is a splendid silver gray Proof specimen with a faint bluish zephyr-like veil of iridescence on both sides. Well struck for the 1882 issue, certainly much better-quality than similar high-end examples offered in recent years; we find it worthy of strong bidder interest. Only 3100 proofs minted. Pop 38; 1 in 68 (PCGS # 3837) .
Estimated Value $1,500 - 1,700.
