详细说明: 1866 Nickel Three-Cent Piece. Proof-67 Cameo (PCGS). This Superb Gem is largely brilliant save for a splash of golden iridescence in select areas. Cameo contrast is well pronounced, with particularly dense frosting noted on Liberty's portrait and the wreath. Razor sharp in striking detail and virtually pristine, this is a beautiful and impressive example. Generally speaking, while the late date circulation strike nickel three-cent issues are scarcer than their earlier date counterparts, the opposite is true for Proofs of this type. The second year 1866 is scarce in an absolute sense, the mintage often estimated at 725+ pieces but likely somewhere in the range of 800 to 1,200 coins. Expertly preserved survivors such as the coin offered here are decidedly rare from a condition standpoint, and this offering represents a significant opportunity.
