The FINEST certified 1912-D nickel at PCGS--NOT tied for finest, this is the SOLE FINEST--POP 1; NONE FINER! While coining operations began in Denver in 1906, it took six years until nickels were struck. Nearly 8.5 million were struck, and these are generally common in Mint State grades, even MS65. They become scarce in MS66 and it is UNIQUE in 67. This coin is truly SUPERB in every way. Highly lustrous surfaces show off swirling cartwheels on both sides. Incandescent yellow-gold, icy-blue, and rich orange-peach tone glows with extreme brilliance on both sides. We really love the color, and would rank it among the top 1% of toned Mint State Liberty nickels we have ever handled. The devices are very crisp in definition, with an almost razor-like sharpness. Needless to say, this makes a great example for the first Denver mint issued nickel! PCGS 1, NGC 2. Remember, that after 32 years of grading coins, this is the ONLY MS67 graded at PCGS. That should speak volumes as to how RARE truly beautiful SUPERB quality examples are! This is NOT one of the NGC coins sold this decade; and the current PCGS value is way too low! For a coin of this technical and visual quality and rarity at this grade, the sky is the limit. Expect this beauty to bring "beyond moon money!" Cert. Number 08379012 PCGS # 3874
