1942-S Nickel, MS67 Full Steps
Surprisingly Sharp War Nickel

1942-S 5C MS67 Full Steps PCGS. In 1942, San Francisco was the only mint not to strike nickels in the pre-wartime alloy, a reversal of the striking pattern of the 1942-D. This first-year war nickel is magnificently preserved with minimal patina and surprisingly sharp detail on Monticello's steps. A notable coin for the Registry collector. Population: 22 in 67 Full Steps, 0 finer (11/14).(Registry values: N491)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22TN, PCGS# 84017, Greysheet# 3243)
