PCGS Cert # #06694066
This is an absolutely breathtaking proof – type coin that represents the first year of issue for the five-cent nickel piece. Stunning reflective fields glow beneath frosty devices. From a small mintage of 200.
PCGS Cert #919595003
PCGS / NGC Population: 87/64
A stunning representative with pale-pink, sky-blue and mint-green that illuminates the surfaces. The five cent denomination was introduced to replace the five-cent fractional currency notes that were in circulation. The Shield nickel design was taken from Longacre’s two cent design and modified.

PCGS Cert #18153336
PCGS / NGC Population: 67/100 Higher 11/26
A beautiful untoned Shield Nickel example and the last year to display the “Rays” on the reverse. Crisply detailed on both the obverse and reverse. A great coin throughout.
PCGS Cert #18625707
PCGS / NGC Population: 137/175 Higher 32/60
A bright, untoned coin that shows intense cameo contrast. In our opinion, GEM quality proof nickel coinage from the 19th century is very attractive at today’s levels. This allows virtually all collectors to start or add to a set before the inevitable price increase.

Even though, as with all proof coins of this date, there is some die polish visible, this is really a bright coin. The 1871 is a very desirable better-date to the series, and not a single coin has graded higher at PCGS.

PCGS Cert #06621174
PCGS / NGC Population: 24/24 Higher 0/3
A lightly toned coin, attesting to its originality and showing slight cameo contrast (although not enough to get the designation). A bit of die polish is visible, as is common of proofs of this date.
PCGS Cert #25544570
PCGS / NGC Population: 43/46 Higher: 2/5
CAC Population: 9/0
Even though, as with all proof coins of this date, there is some die polish visible, this is really a bright coin with great cameo contrast. The 1873 is a very desirable date with its “Closed 3” design, and not a single coin has graded higher at PCGS.

PCGS / NGC Population: 15/8 Higher 0/4
Out of a small mintage of 700 comes this fantastic Cameo proof Shield nickel. One of only 10 examples to receive this grade with only 2 coins grading finer. A slight golden hue touches both sides attesting to its originality. Shield Nickels are another great series that have lost favorability within the collector community making this a great area to purchase the best at affordable prices.
PCGS Cert #06641591
PCGS / NGC Population: 10/7 Higher 2/2
Out of a small mintage of 700 comes this fantastic Cameo proof Shield nickel. One of only 11 examples to receive this grade with only 2 coins grading finer. A mostly brilliant example, with a slight golden tone that touches the center. Shield Nickels are starting to show interest within the collector community but the prices are still reasonable, making it a great time to add to your collection.
