A very attractive 1881 key date shield nickel graded XF 45 by NGC. It carries strong details for the grade with very attractive original surfaces. This date is probably the third toughest mint state strike to find of the entire series only following the 1879 and the 1880. It has been approved by CAC for quality. This key date holds a very low mintage of only 68,000. However, of this mintage the PCGS Coin Facts estimates that only 750 have survived in all grades today! It is one of only nine graded XF 45 by NGC and one of only three approved by CAC in this grade level!
