1953-S Jefferson Nickel, MS66
Registry Grade Full Steps Example

1953-S 5C MS66 Full Steps PCGS. Writing about the key 1953-S Jefferson nickel, Bernard Nagengast notes:

"Although easily found as a BU coin, most are struck from worn dies. Full strike blazers are periodically seen, but are rare. ... A full struck five full step coin is a major rarity, and few have been discovered. This is one of the real stoppers!"



This delightful Premium Gem exhibits well-detailed design elements, with five full steps on Monticello and just a touch of the usual softness on the windows and Jefferson's hair. The lightly toned, lustrous surfaces are impeccably preserved and eye appeal is outstanding. This coin is a Registry Set essential. Population: 2 in 66 Full Steps, 0 finer (11/20).(Registry values: P1)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 22UR, PCGS# 84051, Greysheet# 3299)
