1878 SHIELD NICKEL — PCGS PR66 CAC
A stunning Proof Shield Nickel with exceptional eye appeal and elite certification. This PCGS PR66 CAC example displays deeply mirrored fields and razor-sharp device detail, showcasing the full precision of the Proof strike. The surfaces are beautifully preserved, with virtually no distractions and a smooth glassy reflectivity that elevates the coin far above typical survivors. The CAC approval confirms its premium quality within the grade—only the finest PR66 pieces earn the sticker. Crisp shield lines, sharp star points, and fully defined numerals make this an outstanding high-end Proof from the late Shield Nickel series. Superb, investment-level Proof type coin that will command strong bidder attention on this CAC designation earned Shield.
