Description

1899 Nickel, Fully Struck MS67+
Important Registry Offering
None Graded Finer

1899 5C MS67+ PCGS Secure. CAC. Ex: Rafferty. This is a flawless, fully struck Superb Gem nickel that stands as the sole finest example at both services by the margin of the Plus designation. Further, this is one of only two MS67 coins that can boast the approval of CAC. These ensure the coin's suitability for Registry Set purposes, and we expect considerable interest among those working on building high-end sets.

The cheek and fields on each side are void of contact, explaining the unrivalled grade assessment. Coruscating luster radiates over brilliant surfaces that show the faintest wisps of gold near star 12 and over the left portion of the wreath. Population: 6 in 67 (1 in 67+), 0 finer. CAC: 2 in 67, 0 finer (11/17).
