I should clarify (HAD) as I sold this coin several years ago, but it was by far the finest nickel I have ever owned.  What look like scratches are just die polish and probably kept this nickel from a MS67 grade. I've also had quite a few nice Proof Liberty nickels, but none were as nice as this business strike Shield nickel.

Both sides have a slight gold patina, with the reverse more so.

Looks natural to me here, though I think the lighting I used for the reverse enhanced the color somewhat. It's the way I found it--it's a family heirloom.

Quote: what would the value be on that coin? Today Numismedia FMV says around $9950 PCGS = $9500, and $14K for a + grade. I think I sold it for around $7K made a few hundred dollars on a quick flip, it was a really spectacular coin, and I would have kept it if possible, it would not surprise me to see it in an upgraded holder of MS66+ today. It was one of the most expensive coins I ever bought, as I was dealing in coins then, I could not afford to keep it.
