NGC Expert Comments:
Most old-time coin collections included complete runs of proof three-cent nickels, but such sets have become rare since the 1970s. This one is absolutely complete and consists of uniformly superb gems. It kicks off with the rarest proof of this coin type, an 1865 grading PF-67 Ultra Cameo. Other superior entries include 1870 grading PF-67* Cameo, 1877 in PF-68 Cameo, 1881 certified as PF-68* Cameo and the scarce 1886 grading PF-68*. This is a lovely run of very carefully selected specimens.
