1872 Shield Nickel Design 2 Ounces .999 Fine Copper Round Colorized American Flag
Condition: This item is in uncirculated condition, protected within a clear acrylic capsule. The surfaces feature a vibrant colorized American flag background behind the high-relief copper elements. The copper appears bright with no significant toning or oxidation visible. It is housed in a flip with a "62" label, though this is not a formal grade from a major third-party grading service like NGC or PCGS.
This round is a modern bullion piece minted from 2 ounces of .999 fine copper. It features a tribute design based on the historical 1872 Shield Nickel, which was the first five-cent piece made of copper-nickel. The obverse depicts the iconic shield with the motto "In God We Trust" and the date 1872, while the reverse indicates the weight of 2 ounces and the metal purity of .999 fine copper surrounded by a wreath and the "United States of America" inscription. The strike is a high-relief decorative type with a colorized field. This is a private mint bullion round and not a government-issued legal tender coin.
