Description

Outstanding Type Two 1913 Nickel, PR 68

1913 5C Type Two PR 68 NGC. Of the 1,514 proofs struck of the Type Two design, this is one of the two finest pieces certified to date (4/01) by the two major services. We see no contact marks on either side of this Superb Gem. The only thing that separates this coin from perfection are a few meaningless specks of carbon on each side that require a magnifier to see. The obverse is lilac-golden while the reverse has a uniform golden-rose patina.
