Description

1945-D Nickel, MS68 Full Steps
One of Two-Finest Known

1945-D 5C MS68 Full Steps PCGS. The 1945-D five cent, from a mintage exceeding 37 million pieces, is readily available through Premium Gem, even with Full Steps designation. MS67 pieces can be located with diligent searching, but higher-grade examples are virtually unobtainable. The present MS68 Full Steps specimen is one of the latter, having a certified population of two coins, both PCGS-graded. The radiantly lustrous surfaces display hints of light gold peripheral color on the obverse while speckles of this color palette make occasional visits to the reverse. Well-struck, save for softness on the upper portico. Immaculately preserved throughout. Population: 2 in 68 Full Steps, 0 finer (3/14).(Registry values: N991)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22TY, PCGS# 84026, Greysheet# 3260)

Weight: 5.00 grams
