This is a scarce coin in all grades F and better.

1919-D is one of the more challenging issues to locate fully struck in the period of generally weak coins that extended from 1917 through 1927. It is one of the last holes filled by a discriminating collector, regardless of whether one is collecting EF - AU or gem uncirculated.

Like 1919(P), weakness of strike is rather evenly distributed. One exception is the forepart of the bison’s head, which is drastically flattened on most pieces. This will affect the grading of 1919-D nickels, as the horn is also somewhat indistinct at its tip. As noted for 1919(P), such isolated weakness may be due to deficiencies in the die itself.

1919-D nickels typically have just average to good luster. Many are toned to varying degrees, and this can range from the streaky gold “wood grain” pattern to a dull, monochromatic film. Colorfully toned examples are quite rare.

Varieties:A bold die break appears on some examples. If allowed to remain in the press, this die would have likely resulted in a cud. Speaking of which, at least one cud is known for both the obverse and reverse, respectively.
