Jefferson Nickels
1942-D 5C D Over Horizontal D, FS-501, MS66 Full Steps PCGS. The 1942-D is considered nearly, if not equally, as scarce as the 1939-D by noted Jefferson nickel Bernard Nagengast. With the coveted D/Horizontal D mintmark, the 1942-D is the unrivaled series key issue. Together with the Full Steps designation, this Premium Gem nickel becomes an unsurpassable Registry Set coin and the capstone of a fine nickel collection.
In terms of surface quality and eye appeal, this example excels as well. Bright peach-gold toning at the margins surround the lustrous, largely untoned portrait of Jefferson. The reverse is equally lustrous with dappled peach-gold and pale-blue shades. PCGS reports just a single coin with such lofty credentials. Population: 1 in 66 Full Steps, 0 finer (11/16).
