I saw a thread about a War Nickel set that had some awesome toning, which got me looking at other War Nickels, so here is a beautiful example. I read that the 1943-D is the most common of the War Nickels, but I feel that this is an exceptional example! What do you think PCGS had to say about this one? (I wish this was mine!)

MS66FS and I'll say they gave it the plus for eye appeal.

Ron Guth: The 1943-D Jefferson nickel is the most common of all the War-time "Silver" issues. Thus, collectors have thousands of high-grade Mint State examples from which to choose, including hundreds in MS-67. The quality of the 1943-D Nickels is excellent. In fact, this is one of the rare instances where the Full Step population exceeds that of the non-Full Steps. The finest examples certified by PCGS (as of February 2012) include 137 MS-67 non-Full Steps and 2 MS-68 Full Steps.http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/CoinDe...4020&redir=t

Quote: 1943-D is the most common of the War Nickels Ha! Try telling that to a roll searcher.  Anyway, that is an AMAZING piece. I'd say it's at least MS-67 FS

Hopper, I would say that since it was a PCGS Article, that would be the source of the numbers.
