About this product

Product Information

<h2>Ron Guth</h2><p>The 1869 Shield Nickel was the last date to have a mintage over 10 million pieces.&nbsp; Because of the relatively largemintage, many examples survived in high grade in collections and accumulations.&nbsp; The most frequenyl-seen grade (by far) is MS-64, but ample quantities exist in MS65 to satisfy the demand for gem examples.&nbsp; The PCGS Condition Census consists entirely of MS66 examples, of which PCGS has certified eleven.</p><p>This date, like so many others in the series, often shows spidery die cracks, especially on the obverse.&nbsp; Often, the stars on the reverse are weakly struck.&nbsp; The ultimate 1869 Shield Nickel is one that is fully struck, bright, lustrous, and with no (or few)&nbsp;die cracks.&nbsp; Good luck finding such a creature!</p>

  • LIMITED EDITION TIME PIECE

    The shield nickel was only minted for 17 years, and is scarce in this condition. I'm happy to add it to my US numismatic collection.
