Exceptional 1925-D Gem Nickel

1925-D 5C MS65 PCGS. Whispers of highly attractive, barely discernible pastel violet, powder-blue, and champagne-gold hues adorn this '25-D Gem. The strike is somewhat above average for what is considered to be one of the most poorly struck issues in the series. Some hair detail is visible on the bison's head, which is typically flat, and the horn is unusually strong, an element that is often weak or missing on even Mint State pieces (David Lange, 2000). Highly lustrous surfaces reveal just a handful of light, inoffensive flecks. Housed in a green-label holder. Population: 70 in 65, 3 finer (6/08).
