<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 2154977, member: 19250&quot;]Your 1866 shield nickel&nbsp; does have a nice color to it. I do collect these but don&#039;t&nbsp; have any toned as such. As to your statement&nbsp; on its&nbsp; strike. Remember these where the first true nickels. Struck in a hard alloy. The platchet&nbsp; was thicker and&nbsp; a tad bit smaller&nbsp; in diameter . The top of the shield&nbsp; a high point if the horizontal&nbsp; lines were not worn I do believe it would of went into the MS&nbsp; numbers. I love these old ANACS&nbsp; holders. In fact I look for them at shows.</p><p>Nice bunch of coins.&nbsp; Thanks for posting&nbsp; them.</p><p>This is a repunched&nbsp; date&nbsp; also one of the most common&nbsp; of the 1866 varieties .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
