Lot Title: 1879 NGC VF-30
Lot Number: 236
Description: Mintage: 25,900. Familiar to shield nickel collectors as an exceptionally difficult circulation-strike key in the series, the 1879 proves to be a challenge at every grade level. Were the series as popular as, say, Lincoln cents, then it would undoubtedly command four figures in retail value. Horizontal shield lines have become merged by wear for this middle grade example, but everything remains boldly outlined and the iron-grey coloration could hardly be better preserved.
