Description: For sale is the Crowned Jewel of all Jefferson Nickels--a 1950-D graded and certified by NGC as MS-65 FS, which is actually considered high for Nickels from this era. The FS in the grade stands for "Full Steps" referring to the steps on the Monticello on the reverse. Most Nickels minted for circulation will have flat spots on the steps, but those that have all the very fine lines for each step fully visible and separate, indicating the coin is a superior strike. This coin is literally the rarest and most valuable of all Jefferson Nickels minted for circulation because they minted a very mere 2.6 million coins. That may seem like a lot, but to put it in perspective they minted 28.6 million coins in 1951. This makes the 1950-D the lowest-minted Jefferson Nickel of them all. To find them in nice MS-65 condition like this one is even more of a rarity. But when you get them with "FS" in the grade it almost doubles the value from a regular MS-65.As you can see from the pics the coin is in stellar MS uncirculated shape. The coin has all the original shine and mint luster to it, and even the majority of the lines on the Monticello steps are visible. It has a nice golden hue to it, and it has no damage or major blemishes.For anyone putting together a Nickel collection this is a very tough coin to get and can be had here at a price lower than what it costs to get certified! Thanks!
