Lot Title:
|
1918-S NGC MS-62.
|
|
Description:
|
Clem Stevens Collection. Arguably underrated within the series, 1918-S nickels often foreshadow the problems commonly found with subsequent San Francisco issues, including weak strikes. The MS-62 grade offered by NGC undoubtedly reflects soft details overall, and even the bison's horn barely shows up to the tip, with the head also otherwise lightly defined. Still, this is a lustrous piece showing no signs of wear and steely grey surfaces that are rather well preserved. (PCGS# 003940)
