1927-S
.
PCGS graded MS-65.
CAC Approved
. Well
struck for this date. Nice even toning on both sides. Writing
in 2000, David W. Lange states in his book on the series:
"[The] 1927-S is generally well struck for an S-mint Nickel
of the 1920s…" Based on this comment, we believe that
widespread circulation is more to blame for the high-grade
shortage of the '27-S than is poor striking quality. Since the
PCGS Population of this issue tails off sharply above the
Mint State 64 level, we anticipate considerable competition
for this lightly toned Gem among Registry Set collectors.
Both sides exhibit dominant sandy-gold toning with inter-
mingled sleek luster radiance and nickel-smooth irides-
cence. The strike is overall sharp and free of criticism;
moreover, there are no noteworthy distractions. Specialists
who appreciate originality, who are drawn to exceptional
quality would be shrewd to enter strong bids for this
impressive '27-S Nickel.

.
PCGS graded MS-64.
CAC Approved
. Nice golden
toning. Highly desirable in Mint State, and more than ever in
choice MS64 condition; finer specimens of the date have been
graded by PCGS but are multiples of the price of this still very
attractive coin. Indeed, of the more than 3.4 million pieces
struck, a fair number but not really a large population have
been graded this high.
