Description

Seldom-Seen 1942-D, D Over Horizontal D
Jefferson Nickel, Mint State

1942-D 5C D Over Horizontal D MS60 NGC. FS-501, previously FS-027. In A Guide Book of Buffalo and Jefferson Nickels, Bowers (2007) remarks that the D Over Horizontal D variety is "very rare, even a worn example would be a prize." Certainly, this Mint State specimen would be a wonderful addition to any Jefferson nickel collection. Light yellow and rose patina covers the surfaces, with a darker area noted at the top of the obverse. The mintmark error is bold under magnification. A lustrous and well-preserved example. (Registry values: P1)
