Liberty Nickels
1912-D 5C MS67 NGC. The 1912-D (8.4 million coins struck) was one of the first branch mint nickels issued along with the lower-mintage 1912-S. Both the 1912-D and 1912-S have similar certified populations through MS66 despite the significant discrepancy in their production totals. The only real difference between the two is that while the 1912-S is unknown in MS67, a small number of elite 1912-D survivors exist. They include four Superb Gems at NGC and two at PCGS with none finer (2/24).
This top-graded rarity is naturally toned in an array of powder-blue, green rose, orange, gold, and lavender hues. Eye appeal is spectacular, easily matching the unsurpassed quality. The kernels on the left ear of corn are fully defined, as is the rest of the design. Well worth a premium bid.
