Thanks everyone!
I would say Mint State. Here is a certified Proof. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] The 1883 No Cents Nickel is common in Mint State and AU because of...
I think the dealer called it "Mint State." If it's not, it's darn close to it. The fact that it has a silver wash eliminates the need to get hung...
