Description

1941 Jefferson Nickel, PR68
Registry Set Candidate

1941 5C PR68 PCGS. Ex: Tom Mershon Collection. Close examination with a loupe confirms the nearly perfect status of this coin as indicated by the grade. But the desirability of this piece is not limited to mere preservation of the surfaces. The untampered originality of the surfaces are demonstrated by the streaks of rose, ice-blue, and green iridescent toning seen over each side. Only 18,720 proofs were struck in 1941, but surprisingly few were set aside by contemporary collectors. Undoubtedly this proof will be avidly sought after by Registry Set collectors. Population: 11 in 68, 0 finer (2/23).
Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 9/2008), lot 864; Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 6/2013), lot 4408, where it sold for $18,800.
From The Stephenville Collection. (Registry values: N991)
