The BNE Collection (Brilliant Proofs)

About This Set: THIS SET OF COINS HAS BEEN CONSIGNED TO HERITAGE AUCTIONS FOR AUCTION AT F.U.N., JANUARY, 2017 AND HERITAGE INTERNET AUCTIONS IN JANUARY, 2017

This set is a companion to The BNE Collection (DCAM/CAM). It includes many finest-graded brilliant proof specimens of Jefferson nickels. BNE hopes to upgrade the few issues in this set that are a grade below the top.

Many of the pre-1952 examples sport different kinds and shades of attractive toning. The 1952-1964 issues are uniformly white, lustrous and remarkably flashy. BNE believes brilliant "modern" proofs are underappreciated. Brilliant is beautiful!!
