(About The Images)
1873 CLOSED 3. NGC PF-66. 1873 CLOSED 3. NGC PF-66.
Lot Title: 1873 CLOSED 3. NGC PF-66.
Description: Devices are sharply impressed everywhere, including the "1" in the date, which is nicely repunched. Glittering surfaces are not quite deeply reflective, yet still offer pleasing contrast with cotton-white devices. Proofs of the era were often struck on planchets of dubious quality, but not so in this case. There are no noticeable planchet voids or blemishes to be found anywhere. The NGC "closed 3" attribution is redundant, since all proofs of the date are such. (PCGS# 003827)
Low Estimate: $1,000.00
High Estimate: $1,300.00
Lot Status: Bidding has been closed for this lot.

A resounding, superior GEM, this fantastic proof shield nickel gleams with chromelike brilliance, with the entire coin unaffected by even the slightest hint of toning. NGC did not provide a "cameo"...

1873 CLOSED 3. NGC PF-65 CAC.
A clean, no-nonsense proof nickel, the NGC PF-65 grade reflects a high level of circulation strike demeanor, without frills or concerns over cameo designations. Very little contrast is apparent...
