I think I remember this story now. Something about a carwreck and the guy had a suitcase full of coins, etc. 1. Physical Description of the Walton Specimen
John Dale Beety

Only five 1913 Liberty nickels are known, the same five that have been known to exist since they were first displayed together at the 1920 Chicago ANA Convention, just a few months after the first public display of a single specimen in the same city in December 1919. Today, two of the five specimens are in museums, leaving just three examples available to collectors. Of those three, the George Walton specimen has the most remarkable story, recovered from the wreckage of a deadly auto accident and hidden away in a Virginia closet until its rediscovery a decade ago shocked the numismatic world. While the other two specimens have been offered for sale at public auction on multiple occasions, the Walton specimen has never before been offered, publicly or privately.

I think you mid read my post. I know very well there are 5 specimens
I would like to read up more about the San Francisco dies he mentioned

 

pic 2 looks like 13 but pic 3 looks like 12, it would be nice if it was a 13 but there is a 99.999% chance it is just a 12

 

I have never heard anything about ten sets, I guess the 5 known where the only one's made from these ten...........a link would be nice?

 

Made a picture with the OP's coin over a known 1912.
