1865 5C J-418 PR (PCGS#60600)

The Regency Auction 50

详细说明: FROM THE GERALD R. FORSYTHE COLLECTION This is a RARE pattern nickel issue, struck with an 1865 obverse die with a No Rays (post 1867) reverse die. This muling is thought to have been struck in the early 1870s for sale to collectors. With 13-20 thought to exist, it is listed as a Rarity-6+. Pale, totally original golden hues are dusted over reflective, nickel silver surfaces. The design elements are boldly struck up with a bold definition. It is interesting to note that the reverse die was so heavily polished that several letters are partially effaced at the tops. A very cool and rarely seen Pattern. PCGS 6, NGC 1, CAC 2. This coin brought $7,638 in our March 2020 sale of the Seattle Collection and the current Collectors Universe value is listed at $8,750. An important opportunity for the advanced Shield nickel collector or Pattern specialist. Either way, this GEM will see strong bidding when it crosses the block again! Cert. Number 4504144 PCGS # 60600
