I already have this pattern nickel in my collection (bought it 1/03 from the Bowers sale at $4700+ in the same grade) so if anyone would like this "dup" at $4500, just PM me. Obviously, I just have this one coin to offer.
This is an 1866 pattern nickel with an obverse similar to that adopted for regular-issue five cent coinage, except that the motto "In God We Trust" is set out in smaller letters and the date is divided by the ball at the base of the Shield. The reverse numeral "5" is centered within a larel wreath with the legend "United States of America" around. The 5 is tall and its flag terminates with a knob. This is called a "Dutch 5" in the Judd book.
This JUDD 489 pattern shield nickel from 1866 has around 20 coins in total known to exist and is pop 4/0 at PCGS in this exceptional grade! A combination of great rarity and finest known grade in an 1866 Shield nickel proof for $4500 - talk about "relative value"
Again, PM me if you are interested in this coin.
