A Premium GEM Matte Proof nickel with satiny surfaces and a bold strike. Totally original with generous hints of pastel iridescent toning dusted across the fields, deepest at the peripheral areas. The palest rose-pink, soft tangerine-gold, and warm pearly-silver. The surfaces are free of distracting marks and attesting to the originality of this piece are a few tiny flecks seen with the aid of a strong glass. The eye appeal is that of an even loftier grade. Housed in an older generation blue tag holder. PCGS 159, NGC 94, CAC 50. The most recent example to sell in auction realized $2,640 in March 2020 and both PCGS and the CAC Price Guides are listed at $2,750. A great looking coin that will delight any collector and worthy of a GEM set. Cert. Number 3652904 PCGS # 3992.00
