Product Details: This historic 1943-S Jefferson War Nickel represents a fascinating chapter in American coinage, struck at the San Francisco Mint during the height of World War II. To preserve critical nickel for wartime military production, the U.S. Mint altered the traditional alloy composition to a unique blend of 35% silver, 56% copper, and 9% manganese. Professionally certified by PCGS at a spectacular Mint State 67, this outstanding survivor showcases exceptional luster, sharp striking details, and pristine surfaces. It is instantly recognizable by the prominent 'S' mint mark situated above the dome of Monticello, a visual feature unique to these wartime emergency issues.
