Description
1916-S Nickel, MS66
Highly Lustrous, Lightly Toned
1916-S 5C MS66 PCGS. CAC. The grade distribution of
surviving 1916-S nickels is interesting. While VF and XF
representatives are relatively common, those at the bookends of the
grading scale are scarce, if not rare. Gems definitely fall into
the latter (rare) category with PCGS and NGC reporting just 55
examples in MS66. There are just eight coins finer (5/19). This
particular example may not be fully struck, but the overall
definition is well above average in all areas with no areas of
bothersome lack of detail. Medium intensity champagne-gray patina
envelops virtually pristine surfaces that are equally free of
distracting bagmarks and carbon. From the #5 Current and All-Time
