Coin Description:
Light champagne toning rests over clean lustrous well struck surfaces. The eye appeal of this coin is completely related to the luster. Parts of the coin display frosty surfaces while other parts are satin in nature. The result is an intermingled luster effect which results in a powerful visual effect.

Comments:
I have seen this luster effect on other late 40's "S" mint Jefferson Nickels.
