Lot 1449
1867 Nickel Three Cents. NGC graded Proof 65. Hazy toning on both sides and boldly struck. We note a minor lint mark (from lint adhering to the die prior to striking, and appearing in the mirror fields) located in the field behind Liberty's head, and a narrower one on her nose. The dies were carefully wiped between strikings and most proof issues of the period have minor lint marks. Free of the usually seen annoying spots or other problems. The strike is a touch weak on the central reverse denomination.
Estimated Value $1,150 - 1,250.
