Description

1897 5C MS66+ PCGS. It would surprise most collectors to learn that although more than 20.4 million Liberty nickels were struck in 1897, only two coins are graded higher than this MS66+ representative at both services combined. This lustrous Premium Gem features essentially unmarked fields with blushes of golden color. Definition is slightly stronger on the reverse. A few dark spots near the date and a single tick on the jaw identify this important offering.
Population: 33 in 66 (10 in 66+), 2 finer (12/19).(Registry values: N1793)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22PN, PCGS# 3858, Greysheet# 2962)

Weight: 5.00 grams

Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
