CoinFacts Plate Coin. One of the coins I've waited for many years to add to the collection.
Sharply struck coin. A few ticks away from full steps. Good with it staying right here.
Heritage wrote "Daubs of beautiful iridescent rim color complement silvery centers and generous luster on this wartime "silver nickel," so-called although the pieces have more copper (56%) than silver (35%). Note that this piece is the sole finest graded at PCGS. Population: 25 in 67 (1 in 67+), 0 finer (4/13).
Stacks/Bowers wrote "A dusting of gold and powder blue iridescence blankets each side. A virtually perfect Ultra Gem with exceptional eye appeal to match the superior preservation. Among the finest of over 37 million struck, just a single coin ranks finer in this category."
The top picture was PCGS. The bottom, David Lawrence. Which one do you like better?
Legend Numismatics wrote "The SOLE Pop Top example in this category. This is a SUPERB GEM example with a stunning, bold luster and gorgeous, iridescent pastel toning that appears in icy blue and clear-peach gold hues. Generally sharply struck, the steps show about 2/3-3/4 full definition. PCGS 1, NGC 5. NONE HAVE SOLD IN AUCTION, and is unpriced in the PCGS Price Guide. VERY RARE so fine with Full Steps, a 67 FS will cost $6,000+! Good luck. Cert. Number 38455471 PCGS # 4030.00"
Not for sale. The MS67 coin in the population is a misattributed Proof. That cert # is 29874082
