Description

Appealing 1924-D Gem Five Cent

1924-D 5C MS65 PCGS. The 1924-D is one of the scarcest D-mint nickels, though specimens can be obtained through the near-Gem level. Gems can be had with patience and searching, but anything finer is quite rare. Soft violet and orange-gold patina adheres to the lustrous surfaces of this MS65 coin. The strike is typical, in that the bison's head is flat, though the horn is perfectly clear. A nicely preserved piece. Population: 90 in 65, 1 finer (3/09).
