Lot 2691
1912-D Liberty Nickel. PCGS graded MS-65. Well struck. Pale steel blue toning. Well detailed for this more difficult D-mint issue, a lower mintage year, and the first-ever Five-cent coin struck with the Denver mintmark. The delicate toning tries valiantly to compete with the underlying burst of mint frostiness; together these add considerably to the appeal of this nearly pristine Gem.
Business strike Liberty nickels appear to be one of the more undervalued areas in the coin market today. They are very scarce in an absolute sense, especially in comparison to their Philadelphia Mint Proof counterparts, and are also very challenging to locate in Gem grades. Pop 141; 32 finer, 3 in 65+, 29 in 66 (PCGS # 3874) .
Estimated Value $1,400 - 1,500.
