For sale is a gorgeous 1953 Jefferson Proof Nickels, graded and certified by NGC as PF-68, which is incredibly high and incredibly rare for proof Nickels from this era--basically almost unheard of! That is because proof coins in this era were not particularly well struck so they rarely achieve grades higher than MS-66. They are so rare, in fact that NGC has certified 1,051 coins to this grade--and only 299 coins achieved a grade higher than PF-68. THAT'S how rare this coin is! As you can see from the pics the coin is near-flawless. Is has that perfect mirror image finish you would expect from high quality proof coins. Is has just about no blemishes whatsoever and no toning. It really is gorgeous! This is a very nice certified high grade coin that takes your collection to a new level.
