Elusive 1956-D Nickel, MS66 Full Steps

1956-D 5C MS66 Full Steps PCGS. The 1956-D is a challenging coin to locate in high grade and with Full Steps. Nagengast (2002) estimates that only one coin in 150 is found fully struck. This is a lovely example. The satiny surfaces display variegated rose and lilac toning on each side, and the fields are bright from obvious die polishing, the evidence of which can be seen with magnification. Population: 6 in 66 Full Steps, 0 finer (1/10).(Registry values: P1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22UZ, PCGS# 84060, Greysheet# 3311)
