Description
1896 Liberty Nickel, MS66
Tied for Finest Certified
1896 5C MS66 PCGS Secure. The issue often displays a weak
strike and marginal luster, although this example is both boldly
struck and sharply lustrous as expected for the Premium Gem grade.
A pleasing hint of champagne gold covers the virtually mark-free
surfaces, which show only a small carbon spot between the rim and
star 12 and one or two tiny nicks. The wreath shows minimal
blending on the ear of corn and other high points. A true condition
rarity in this MS66 state, with no coins graded numerically higher
by either service. Population: 23 in 66 (3 in 66+), 0 finer
(10/16).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 277B, PCGS# 3857, Greysheet# 2961)
Weight: 5.00 grams
Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
