Item Description
1871 Shield Nickel, a tough date that seems to always be on someone's want list. It is my opinion that this is mostly likely a Proof striking - this is based upon the strike and comparison with various acknowledged Proof coins in certified holders I reviewed. No die cracks or other common signs of a business strike Shield Nickel such as planchet issues, etc. However the surfaces do not show obvious mirrors (nor does the edge) and it does not have a "proof" look. Some of this may be the toning on the surface. This came out of an old vinyl flip and shows a slightly hazy light gray color with some reddish undertones, likely due to exposure to PVC in the flip over time (there is NO PVC on the coin now). I would have to assume that this would be considered lightly "impaired" by a grading service, given as snotty they are right now, however certainly still worthy as a high grade example for an album set. Sold Net based upon my cost as the equivalent of an average Proof 1871 Nickel in the PR-62/63 grade range. If you can determine this to be a Business strike, the upside is considerable. Please note that due to value this will require shipping with Signature Confirmation, hence the S&H shown.
