Description
1943-S 5C Jefferson Nickel -- Struck on a Steel Cent Planchet -- MS66 Full Steps NGC. 2.9 gm. Ex: New England Collection. This silver-gray Premium Gem exhibits coruscating luster and is essentially pristine. The steps display remarkable detail. Slightly uncentered, with a full rim at 9 o'clock on each side while the right side legends are partly off the flan. The date exhibits metal flow toward the edge characteristic of a wrong planchet error, since the undersized flan could not completely fill the dies. Aside from a handful of wrong planchet errors, steel cents were only struck in 1943. The error combination of a steel cent planchet on nickel dies is limited by that year's coinage, and since the error hobby did not exist at that time, no such pieces were set aside except by chance.Ex: Boston ANA Signature (Heritage, 8/2010), lot 3059, which realized $14,950.
