    I went 67 5FS. However I tend to be more generous than the TPGs on Jeffersons, so maybe a 66 at worst I would think?

    I want to say 67+ 5FS. That would make it top pop I believe.

    If it doesn’t have a + I am fine with that but bet it would sticker at 67 meaning it’s on the high end of the grade.

    MS 67 5FS Would've added the plus except for the spots on the reverse

    Most people nailed the grade on this coin found by @Springford CC

    An absolutely exceptional 50-D Jefferson Nickel, the finest I have ever seen, and I have owned multiple MS67 5FS over the years.

    Excited to get my first home made home run! Let’s hope the 53D & S sets coming today contain another hidden Gem like this one.

    As an update on this coin, I have officially purchased this coin from @Springford CC and sold off my existing registry coin which was an MS67 in an old fatty holder that I sent in for designation review and upgraded from MS67 to MS67 5FS. The old coin had nice, but not spectacular toning, and the steps were rather weak. This coin is the cleanest, most lustrous, well struck, with razor sharp steps 1950-D Jefferson Nickel I have ever seen. It will take something jaw dropping to knock this coin out of the box.

    Toning isn't everything.

    That sure is a clean coin. The characteristic look of the older die just makes it look really unique and special. Congratulations on the upgrade! The previous one had nice toning, but the look of the new coin is just spectacular.
