The key date for all Canadian nickels. With a mintage of only 200,050 pieces, the 1925 is a must have for any 5 cent collector. Dark toning in shades of gun-metal grey and hint of amber graces the surface of this five cent piece. The deeply struck relief images maintain exceptional detail, emphasized by the highlights and shadows that play off of the raised profile. King George V's portrait reveals pristine details and intricate texture in the monarch's royal regalia, while the delicate rendering of the reverse maple leaves is contrasted by the bold legend letters. An absolutely fantastic and rare piece, with only two examples graded finer by PCGS (6/11). A must have for any collector.
