Lot 1570
1885 Liberty Nickel. NGC graded Proof 66. The key date the series, with the lowest mintage of all save for the 1912-S (which was saved in quantity). Only 3,790 proofs were struck, of which NGC has graded 102 this high, with just 10 graded higher. This example is toned, with some streaky elements ranging through yellow to brown. Similar on the reverse, with mottled color elements over the mirror surfaces. Free of handling problems, but this one doesn't appear to have been stored properly. As always, it is best for the collector to view the coin before bidding, if possible, to most accurately determine the value.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,250.
