Description
1868 Pattern Nickel Three-Cent Piece. Judd-615, Pollock-680. Rarity-5. Nickel. Plain Edge. Proof-64 (PCGS). CMQ.
Obv: Similar to that used to strike regular issue 1868 nickel three-cent pieces, although set in a wide border. The date is expressed in small numerals. Rev: The Roman numeral III is surrounded by a wreath of corn, cotton, wheat and tobacco that is very similar to that used for the Flying Eagle cent. Coin die alignment. A lovely silver-gray specimen with subtle reflective tendencies in the fields. The devices are smartly impressed and softly frosted in finish. Examples of this type were distributed as part of pattern Proof sets along with one cent and nickel five-cent pieces featuring a similar obverse design.
PCGS# 60827. NGC ID: 29N7.
PCGS Population: 8; 5 finer in this category (Proof-66 finest).
