Nice! I keep thinking that I need to pick up a 19th century proof for my collection. Kind of afraid that I won't be able to stop if I start! You'll have to comment back after you get her in hand.
Absolutely @Batman23 , it is an absolute beauty 👍
Congrats!

Congratulations! It's a beautiful coin
19th century proofs are a special breed.
Here's a warning parable for coin collectors...
Photos sure look good. Nice coin.
Thanks, If anyone has cool proofs please share 👍
One of the most common of all Liberty Nickels in AU and lower end Mint State, yet one of the scarcer pieces in Proof because it is a partial year type.
@BillJones , is a partial year type a coin only produced for less then a year such as the 1909 VDB, the no cents V nickel, and the 1883 shield nickle ?
Yes. If you are a type collector who is filling the slots with Proof coins, the 1883 No Cents Nickel is actually when of tougher types. If you are doing it with Mint State coins, it’s one of the easy ones.
That is a beautiful nickle... Congratulations... Cheers, RickO
I had an 1873 proof seated half dime a few years ago, it was even an Eliasberg coin. That's one I regret selling,

Very,very nice example. Congratulations!
Very nice.
I always wonder how a coin like that was stored to keep it so pristine. I would appreciate any insight.
Nice!
Very nice, congratulations !!!
Thanks, anyone else have cool proofs?

I like it, I've been looking for that exact kinda (date and PROOF) coin to add to my certified type set.
Shouldn't be difficult, but everytime I start looking for things they seem to dry up.
Nice coin.
I do have a PR shield to add to the thread:
@LanLord absolutely stunning PR 67 cam 😂👍
Beautiful Dime! I use to have this date in proof63 that looked like this and had the repunched date (1) up into the rock.
That is one coin that I really regret selling!
Stunning how proof coins can survive over 100 years 👍, a proof 1868 dime is a vary scarce date among proofs.
I have always wondered how coins (especially proofs) have survived for all these years.
Cool hobby, ain't it?
Absolutely a cool hobby @Raybo 👍
One heck of a Shield LanLord!
Proof shield nickels are vary cool, they were one of my choices for a proof coin I wanted to buy, I chose the PR 64 1883 v nickel because it was selling for only $325 so I got a really good deal 👍

@crazyhounddog that v nickel is a gorgeous example 😂
Thank you
@crazyhounddog I think your proof is a Doble die
I've often wondered about that. I never looked into it.
It could be a valuable error, anyway it adds to the story of the coins history. 👍
Nice Nickels all and half dime.
Hoard the keys.
Let me see what I can find.
Thanks again
Alwright @crazyhounddog , good luck 👍
