Description

1947 5C, FS — NGC MS-67. This exceptional 1947 nickel represents a superior example of post-war coinage from the final year of the wartime composition series. Graded MS-67 by NGC (Certification #4677358005), this piece displays the sharp strike and lustrous surfaces characteristic of high-grade specimens from this era. The 1947 nickel is notable as the last year of production before the composition returned to the traditional copper-nickel standard in 1948. This transitional status, combined with strong technical quality, makes well-preserved examples increasingly sought after by both type collectors and specialists in wartime coinage. The MS-67 grade indicates exceptional eye appeal with only light, scattered marks consistent with the grade. With a starting bid of $1,500, this certified piece offers collectors the opportunity to acquire a significant post-war nickel in impressive condition.
