A mint state Jefferson nickel set was overlooked for years as a “serious” PCGS set. No longer! This set is attractive, challenging, and fun. It’s a large set and there are a number of dates that are nothing short of RARE in high quality mint state with full steps. It is the very nature of the challenge that makes collecting the set exciting.
Notes: This set has bonuses. Please see the Set Composition for a listing.
