Most 1945-P Jefferson Nickels have alot of roughness, so trying to find Smooth Gems like this one will be very difficult to find. Look at these Photo(s) and notice the Fine-Quality of this coin. Seeking sharp-steps adds another challenge finding those however, are few and far between. There are also (2) Double-Die Reverse's collected for this date, try finding these, you may want to stop off at your bank for replenishment of funds.
