Description:

Both sides of this premium gem are blanketed by a pale gold & lavender patina. Only a few scattered marks are found on boldly impressed lustrous surfaces. Despite the incomplete steps, the details of Monticello are outstanding with full details on the windows and doors. As is typical for Jefferson Nickels, there is some remnant planchet roughness on the cheek and jaw.

Comments:

This coin is one of only 20 coins graded MS67 by either service. This coin is an outstanding representative for the date/mm and is certainly a permanent resident in this set.
