1947-S JEFFERSON MS-GEM FULLSTEPS!
The San Francisco Mint in 1947' produced almost 25 million nickels where the appearance of most coins showed a dull greyish look to them. Sifting thru nickel-rolls can become frustrating at times, however' with determined effort your excitement intensifies having finally' found one for your collection.
This Jefferson nickel came from my raw-nickel collection, and decided to send it in for grading a few weeks ago. Viewing this in its new Ngc holder' > This coin simply rocks!
It makes it all worthwhile and self-rewarding, that's difficult to find in this condition. This postwar beauty demands attention showing remarkable luster on both-sides of the coin .
Updated March 2017 Ngc total graded (435) there were only (34) in MS66-FS / (2) MS67-FS .

B. Nagengast: True Gem full-strikes in this year are getting more difficult to locate than 1946-S-1948-S and 1949-S.
