Description
Notable MS66 1896 Nickel
A Highlight of the Set
1896 5C MS66 PCGS. Despite a respectably high mintage in
excess of 8.8 million pieces, not many high grade survivors are
known today from this Liberty nickel issue. This Premium Gem is
well struck, with pleasing satiny luster and undisturbed surfaces
that seem pristine. It is nearly untoned, and appears so at arm's
length, but closer inspection reveals a bit of streaky, speckled
patina on each side. With such splendid overall quality, it would
be difficult to find a better example of the 1896 Liberty nickel,
as the certified population shows. Population: 8 in 66, 0 finer
(11/09).From The Pacific Collection of Liberty Nickels.(Registry values: N2998)
