1942-P 5C Type Two PR68 PCGS. Iridescent colors emerge from the smoothly lustrous surfaces of this Superb Gem Type Two war nickel. Shades of lemon-yellow, violet, green, and pale-blue glow interchangeably depending on the angle of view. The reverse is brilliant. Both sides display razor-sharp devices with nearly full details across the mark-free fields and motifs. PCGS reports just one numerically finer example. Population: 16 in 68, 1 finer (11/16).
