Roughly 625 proof three-cent nickels were struck in 1867, slightly below the 1866 figure. The Mint was shipping annual proof sets to subscribers across the country, and late-1860s proof production remained stable and predictable. Subscribers that year received their sets in the same months Congress was arguing about the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment and newspapers were mocking William Seward's purchase of Alaska. The 1867 proof is available to collectors building a complete proof set and is comparable in scarcity to other proofs of the period.
