1928-S Nickel, Lightly Toned MS66
Conditionally Rare

1928-S 5C MS66 PCGS. CAC. The 1928-S is a better date in high grade, being genuinely scarce in MS65 and a major series rarity any finer. This Premium Gem example represents only the 20th time that we have handled a coin in this condition, including multiple reappearances of some examples. Finer representatives of the date are prohibitively rare. Strike sharpness is far above average despite slight die erosion in the fields. Both sides offer light lavender-blue and champagne toning over mostly pristine surfaces. This is a coin destined for a high-ranking Registry Set. Population: 11 in 66, 1 finer. CAC: 5 in 66, 0 finer (11/16).(Registry values: N4719)
