1979 S Jefferson Nickel Proof 65 DCAM Type 2 PCGS 94213.65

The 1979 S Jefferson Nickel Proof 65 Deep Cameo Type 2 has been graded and encapsulated by PCGS. The Deep Cameo designation reflects strong contrast between the frosted devices and the mirrored fields. The Type 2 designation refers to the clearer, sharper mintmark style used on a portion of 1979 S proof coinage, distinguishing it from the filled Type 1 mintmark. This is a classic example of a collector-grade Jefferson Nickel proof from the late 1970s.
