Description

1925 5C MS67 PCGS. The 1925 is part of a string of high-mintage Philadelphia issues from the Roaring Twenties, heavily produced but also heavily spent. Though lesser Mint State coins are relatively available, Gems and better appear only in small quantities, and at the MS67 level, the emphasis is on "small," with just six coins so graded by PCGS and none finer (3/09). This gleaming piece has frosty luster with occasional hints of peach patina over otherwise bright nickel-white surfaces. Decisively struck with a small planchet flake below the bison's body as the only flaw readily perceptible to the unaided eye.
