Owner Comments:

MS66 5FS

I picked up 5 1940 S's in a half price bin at the local coin show ($20 for all 5!!!). All of them had some type of rainbow toning on each side so I submitted 2 for grading. This one came back as a MS66 5FS. It is very hard to find a 40S that looks good in hand IMO. This coin has the luster and the fiery halo effect on the reverse.

The other coins I have is a NGC VP-001 S/S MS65.
