For sale is an amazing 1967 SMS Jefferson Nickel graded and certified by NGC as MS-67 Cameo which is incredibly high and rare for this coin! "SMS" stands for "special mint set." The Mint did not mint proof sets 1965 to 1967 and instead minted Special Mint Sets which had highly polished MS coins that sort of resembled proof coins, but weren't actually proof. These were considered SMS coins and are far more rare than the regular MS coins because they minted so few. It cannot be overstated how rare this coin is in MS-67 Cameo grade. Coins from this era were not particularly well struck coins so you typically find them in MS-61 or 62 at the highest. It is so rare, in fact, that NGC has graded a tiny 772 coins to this grade, and only a mere 114 coins achieved a grade higher than 67 Cameo. THAT'S how rare this coin is!

As you can see from the pics the coin is in absolutely amazing condition. It very much resembles a proof coin with that gorgeous mirror image finish with frosty raised reliefs you expect from high quality struck coins. It has no toning at all and no major blemishes.

This is an amazing coin to add to any Nickel collection--or for anyone who just wants to own more gorgeous rare coins. Thanks!
