- R-6+, 13-20 minted. A very beautiful coin featuring Barber’s Liberty head, adopted in 1883, surrounded by UNITED STATES OF AMERICA; the reverse is a large V inside an open wreath of cotton, corn, and wheat. Struck in Nickel with a plain edge. Deep, watery, highly reflective mirrors contrast nicely with the frosty, well struck devices. The design elements really do float against the deep reflection of the surrounding fields. A few microscopic ticks and lines can be found with a lot of effort using a strong glass, none of which detract from the exceptional, high end eye appeal. These proto-Liberty nickels are very popular among advanced collectors of that series. Indeed, the patterns are often of nicer designs than what was ultimately adopted--how about that. PCGS 3, NGC 2, CAC 2. This GEM appears to be the former NGC PR65 CAM that sold in April 2018 for $9,000. It has since crossed and upgraded. Clearly the eye appeal is stronger than the PR66 CAM we sold in January 2017, and worthy of the finest cabinet of pattern Liberty Head nickels. Cert. Number 35410454 PCGS # 512828
