Lot Description

Here is a virtually flawless GEM 1956-D nickel, a date that is quite scarce in all FS grades, and excessively rare any finer. A brilliant mint luster has a chrome-like flash and offers a light dusting of icy iridescence. Monticello is sharply and crisply defined throughout with full definition to the facade. The eye appeal is very nice. PCGS 13, NGC 0. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $2,250. Since 2008, just three examples have sold in auction, the most recent in August 2020 for $1,560. There are three in 66+ FS, two of which we have sold, one in December 2020 for $4,465 and one for $6,463 in December 2019. There is just a single MS67 FS graded at the top of the pop. Good luck.
