I picked up a War Nickel set in a pawn shop for $40. Some of the coins were really nice with lovely toning. I selected 3 of them to post here.
This one is the 1942 S.

MS-66 , Love the way they start to tone . Possible FS , possible die crack or just a scratch on reverse from left side of UNUM to right side of dome .

That reverse scratch (?) might hold it to MS-64.

I think that is a rim to rim die crack on the reverse? I don't see that one listed on Cuds on coins RRDC?
Was this set in a capital plastic holder with a white paper insert?
I ask because my set is also toning in the same color...
Nice pick up!
