1872 "double die obverse" PCGS PF-63, and a 1907 Liberty nickel PCGS PF-63. 1872 "double die obverse" PCGS PF-63, and a 1907 Liberty nickel PCGS PF-63.
Lot Title: 1872 "double die obverse" PCGS PF-63, and a 1907 Liberty nickel PCGS PF-63.
Description: An economical nickel proof type collection could begin with this pair, which includes an 1872 and 1907, both graded PF-63 by PCGS. The shield nickel displays a really nice (and well known) doubled-die obverse, but grading concerns include somewhat dull luster and a shallow scratch on the reverse. The V nickel has all the makings of a somewhat higher grade, but has a couple of spots and a few hairlines incompatible with upgrade. Two coin lot. (PCGS# 003826)
Low Estimate: $400.00

1872 Doubled Die Obverse NGC MS-64.
