1940 Jefferson Nickel INB Slabbed Uncirculated
This 1940 Jefferson Nickel is presented in an uncirculated condition, securely housed in a protective slab from the International Numismatic Bureau (INB).

The coin is preserved in a specialized INB holder, which ensures the surfaces remain protected from environmental wear and handling. This uncirculated early-date nickel serves as a significant piece of American numismatic history, perfect for collectors looking to add a high-quality, slabbed representative of the pre-war era to their portfolio.
1940 Jefferson Nickel INB Slabbed Uncirculated
Condition: This 1940 Jefferson Nickel is presented in an International Numismatic Bureau (INB) slab, described as Uncirculated. The coin exhibits the characteristic luster and crisp details expected of a non-circulated business strike. It was minted in Philadelphia, as evidenced by the lack of a mint mark on the reverse. The metal content consists of 75% copper and 25% nickel. Historically, the 1940 issue represents the third year of the Felix Schlag design, which replaced the Buffalo nickel in 1938. This specific specimen features the "Reverse of 1940" with sharp steps on Monticello and a refined strike typical of the early pre-war era. While housed in an INB holder, a specific numerical grade is not assigned on the label.
