Owner's Description

Mintage: 6.6 Million<br />Full Step Availability: 1%<br />Population MS67: 106/0<br />Date/mm Information: The production for the San Francisco nickels is split in half between the two reverses. As is seen with the other mints, the steps are not typically sharp.<br /><br />Coin Description: <br />This premium gem is graced by blushes of grass green on both sides. Some minor imperfections scattered about do not detract from the coin's beauty.<br /><br />Comments:<br />Although this issue is not particularly scarce with a population over 100 in the highest grade, very few of these ever seem to hit the market not one has been auctioned by Heritage over the last two years. I was able to procure this piece with subtle toning on E-Bay in September 2009. And I have no earthly idea why this coin carries such a high registry point value.
