Coin Description:
Light golden toning adorns both sides of this lustrous well struck premium gem. Despite the LDS evidenced by some die wear and a prominent die crack in Jefferson's hair, this coin is not short on eye appeal and has a radiant appearance in hand.
Comments:
This coin replaces what was a very attractive PQ MS66 example. Despite the fact that there are 280 MS67 1938-S certified Jefferson Nickels, it took me 2 years to find one that was better in quality than my MS66. And while this coin is a solid MS67, it is almost indistinguishable in quality from my MS66.
On the fortunate side, I only paid $99 for this coin which is only $42 more than I paid for the MS66 it replaced. I could have tried to upgrade my MS66 through resubmission, but unless it upgraded on the first try, it would have been a losing proposition financially.
