Condition & Photos
In the seller's opinion, these nickels appear Brilliant Uncirculated (BU). This is a subjective assessment, not a third-party grade or a guarantee of a particular Mint State grade. No Full Steps designation is assigned.
Photos are representative examples from our inventory. You will receive one 1987-D nickel; the exact coin pictured may not be the one shipped. Appearance and minor marks can vary.
The coins were photographed through the clear plastic windows of their holders. Wrinkles, scuffs, and glare in that plastic can create apparent lines or distortion over the coins. The seller notes that some apparent defects in these photos are on the plastic, rather than the coin surfaces.
Felix Schlag's classic design pairs Thomas Jefferson's portrait on the obverse with Monticello on the reverse.
