Full Step Availability: 0.025%
Date/mm Information: Although attractive gems are common, those with 5 full steps are rarities.


Coin Description:
Both sides of this premium gem are bathed in a gorgeous grey gold patina. The surfaces are extremely smooth for the assigned grade The luster and strike are also exemplary despite the absence of full steps. A large die crack traverses the top of Jeffersons head on the obverse.

Comments:
A premium quality coin for the assigned grade that would not look out of place in an MS67 holder. It is always nice when you can pick up a registry quality coin for less than $20. With my 1938-1964 set nearing completion, hopefully I can continue to find affordable modern Jeffs to add to my 1938-Present set.
