1881 pattern five cents. J-1671, P-1872. Rarity-6+. |
| Description: |
Nickel. Plain edge. Frosty motifs and mirror fields display a whisper of pale champagne
iridescence. A lovely cameo gem, though the cameo designation is not noted on the holder.

design which would later be adapted for use in the Liberty nickel series (1883 to 1913).
The present coin is the only example of J-1671 called Proof-66 by NGC, with no other
examples of this rarity graded finer within the designation; PCGS has not certified an
example of this issue that is equal to or finer than the present coin!NGC Census: 1; none
finer within the designation. |
