Lot Title: 1871 (P02a, plate coin) NGC PF-65.
Description: 1871 P02a, Plate coin. Brilliant surface quality is easily mistaken for that of a business strike because there is essentially no cameo effect on either side. The NGC PF-65 grade fails to adequately reflect numerous carbon spots on each side, as well as a hairline scratch on Liberty's portrait. (PCGS# 003767)

370The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$800.00
1871 NGC PF-66.
Extremely bright, clean and vibrant surfaces show virtually no cameo effect at all, announcing this as a fully brilliant proof. Pristine in all respects, surfaces blaze with chromelike brilliance and...

1871, 1876, and 1880. NGC PF-64.
NGC has consistently graded each of these three-cent nickels PF-64, though they vary appreciably in appearance. The 1871 shows hard brilliance and reflectivity over fields and devices, while the 1876...
520The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$310.00
1871 PCGS PF-64.

1085The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$310.00
1871 NGC PF-63.

409The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$210.00
1871 MS-63.
A nice example of a coin that is part of a series that many view as underrated.
