Description
1912-D Nickel, MS67
Tied With Two Others for Finest
1912-D 5C MS67 NGC. The 1912-D Liberty nickel was the Denver
Mint's first crack at coining the hard nickel alloy, with the
result that most examples of this first branch mint issue are
weakly struck on the corn ear to the left of the wreath bowknot, as
well as on the obverse stars. The present Superb Gem is typical in
that regard, but the outstanding surface preservation and delicate
pastel toning that blankets each side in warm gold, lavender, and
powder-blue hues deliver pleasing eye appeal. This piece is tied
with just two others for finest at NGC, while PCGS has not seen any
examples finer than MS66+ (3/15).(Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 277P, PCGS# 3874, Greysheet# 2978)
