1938-D Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67 5FS by lehigh96

[CSJournals-migration]

Obtained a 1938-D Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67 5FS from drbobcoins (E-Bay seller) for $699.50 and 1707 registry points.

 

1938-D 5C MS67 5FS: NGC Census: (8/0). PCGS Population (32/0) (2/2012).

Seller: E-Bay Seller: drbobcoins

E-Bay Listing: 120859876122

Ended: Feb 20, 201217:10:42 PST

 

Coin Description:

The coin is blanketed on both sides by a glowing golden patina and stunning luster resulting in magnificent eye appeal. An exacting strike yields five full steps for this top pop coin that has only a few minor imperfections.

 

Comments:

The 1938-D is plentiful in MS67 and with even golden toning. What separates this coin from the pack is the fact that the steps are full. One of only 8 coins graded MS67 5FS by NGC and PCGS has only graded another 32 (2/2012). This coin replaces a toned MS66 5FS that is impressive in its own right. To my knowledge, no collector outside of the top 5 in the registry has a 1938-D MS67 5FS in their collection attesting to its rarity. The majority of these coins are PCGS graded and reside in strong hands in the PCGS registry.

I am amazed as to what I have learned since starting my own adventure in collecting coins. I am a Newbie since I just started over the past five months.

 

I have gained a better understanding of the term -- rarity-- mostly from reading posts like yours.

 

Thanks for sharing and providing info on the 1938-D Jefferson Nickel.

 

Best wishes,
