1883 Pattern Liberty Head Nickel. Judd-1704, Pollock-1908. Rarity-6-. Pure Nickel. Plain Edge. Proof-67 Cameo (PCGS). CAC. Gold Harry W. Bass, Jr. Collection Label. Obv: The usual Liberty Head motif by Charles E. Barber adopted for regular issue nickel five-cent coinage in 1883, surrounded by the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA instead of 13 stars, with the date below. Rev: An open agricultural wreath within which is the inscription PURE NICKEL. The denomination is divided FIVE above and CENTS below, with 13 stars around the border arranged seven left, six right. A beautiful example with minimally toned, silver-tinged surfaces that present as brilliant at most viewing angles. The fields are icy and considerably reflective, nicely contrasting against the softly frosted design elements. Judd-1704, as offered here, is struck in pure nickel, while Judd-1705, also called "nickel," is struck from the more common alloy of 75% copper and 25% nickel. These same dies were used to strike pieces in aluminum, designated Judd-1706, which was a relatively scarce metal up until the 1890s. Provenance: Ex Abner Kreisberg, November 30, 1970; Harry W.
