Lot Description

This jaw-dropping Ultra Gem is the only MS-68 certified across both PCGS and NGC, and in all categories. Its awe-inspiring target toning in reddish-apricot, cobalt blue, and tannish-pink iridescence really needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. With intense mint luster and virtually pristine surfaces, a touch of striking softness to the steps at central reverse is easily forgotten, especially since the balance of the features are sharply to fully rendered. The ultimate 1947 nickel for both toning enthusiasts and advanced enthusiasts in the Jefferson series, it will see spirited bidding.
