Losbeschreibung

1939 Jefferson Nickel. FS-901. Reverse of 1940. Proof-68 (NGC). Offered is a Superb Gem of the much scarcer reverse hub variety of the proof 1939 Jefferson nickel; the Reverse of 1940 exhibits the enhanced design of 1940 with sharp, crisply defined steps on Monticello. This delightful example is also rare from a condition standpoint, the surfaces exceptionally smooth with nary a distracting blemish in evidence. Virtually untoned and otherwise brilliant in finish, light frosting to the devices provides a modest cameo-like appearance at certain angles. None finer in this category at NGC, this is tied for finest known with three other examples. NGC Census: 4; 0 finer in this category. PCGS# 94176. NGC ID: 2TR4.
