ronh308 New Member United States 25 Posts	Posted 02/15/2016 04:56 am I am thinking of buying one of the special issue 1994 Jefferson nickels. On ebay I can see several which are in NGC holders. The labelling is 1994 P 5C SP 69 Is that the way the label should read? I am not too sure of what the SP 69 means. Thanks for any help. Report this Post to the Staff

The TPG' have called them several things, Matte PF, SMS, and Specimen. doesn't really matter what they called them they are all the same thing. Report this Post to the Staff

Quote: The Mint used the special finish for the nickel so that it would match the satiny finish of the uncirculated silver dollar. It was the first Jefferson five-cent piece to feature the matte finish and many collectors of the Jefferson series were quick to purchase the sets to keep their collection complete.
