David Lawrence Rare Coin Auctions
139: Monday - Internet Auction # 480
Description:
One of the toughest Jefferson nickel varieties in high grade, and ranked in the original Top-10 Jefferson varieties as the 2nd rarest variety in mint state! The variety features the D-mintmark repunched, but with the 2nd mintmark inverted over the first. Beautiful coin with light gold toning and no problems.
DLRC Star/Eye Appeal Rating: [3****]
DLRC photos are typically very poor but this coin is very rare in premium gem and the collector really doesn't have the option to pass and wait for a more eye appealing example. DLRC gave they eye appeal of the coin 4 stars out of 5 which in combination with the photos was enough for me to bid on the coin. The coin is very attractive in hand and is deeply toned with on both sides with a vibrant gold patina. The repunched mintmark is plainly evident under a glass and the quality of the coin is deserving of the assigned grade.
