Description

Important MS65 1942-D/D Nickel
'D Over Horizontal D' Variety

1942-D 5C D Over Horizontal D MS65 PCGS. FS-501, previously FS-027. Frosty on the obverse with delicate pastel-blue and champagne patina. The detail is strong, particularly on the steps (which are a few light marks away from a Full Steps designation), though die lapping is evident at Jefferson's shoulder. The all-important overmintmark is plain under magnification, and the portrait is clean, though a minor graze affects the left-central pillar of Monticello. One of just five Gems certified by PCGS, with none finer (1/10).(Registry values: P1)

Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 4015, Greysheet# 3236)

Weight: 5.00 grams

Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel, 9% Manganese
