David, can you give us a theory as to why the Liberty nickel series is the only post 1850 minor coinage series that doesn't have at least one MS 68? Thank you in advance

    That's a good question...The face design is pretty large and flat, so marks probably come easier than say on Shield nickels. And nickel is the hardest metal used for coins, so strike is often an issue.

    Thanks,

    David
