Owner's Comments

This is the Single Finest 1949 nickel graded in either designation. A beautiful SUOREB GEM Example. Mint set toning graces both sides. Pastel rings of clover, pink, champagne, apricot, tangerine and antique nickel silver swirl over highly lustrous surfaces. Well Struck, just a touch of weakness on the steps. The eye appeal on this coin is incredible. Just a monster True View
