Description

Delicately Toned 1912-S Liberty Nickel, MS65

1912-S 5C MS65 PCGS. The Gem level is "about as good as it gets" for the 1912-S Liberty nickel, unless you are an owner of one of the eight (or less) examples certified at the MS66 level by PCGS. The issue is always strike-challenged, with softness appearing--minor on this example--on the waves of Liberty's hair just below LIBERTY and on the lower-left wreath. The delicate olive and jade patina adds to the considerable appeal, but minor marks on the chin and neck preclude an even finer grade. Population: 95 in 65, 8 finer (4/10).(Registry values: N2998)

Metal: 75% Copper, 25% Nickel
