1912-S Liberty Head Nickel. MS-66 (PCGS).An absolutely outstanding example of this historic and scarce San Francisco Mint issue. Smooth satin surfaces are dressed in blended pastel iridescence that includes shades of mauve-gray, salmon pink, golden-apricot and powder blue. A delight to behold, and sure to sell for a premium bid. The popular and eagerly sought 1912-S is the first San Francisco Mint nickel five-cent piece and the only one in the Liberty Head series. This is also the lowest mintage nickel five-cent issue produced up to that point in time, federal records providing for a total of just 238,000 coins struck. A remarkable example with superior technical quality and strong eye appeal, there is much to recommend this piece to the quality conscious Liberty Head nickel enthusiast.PCGS Population: 36; 3 finer (all MS-66+).
