4 Jefferson Nickels NGC PF69 UCAM for $22 shipped!






Pretty generic coins, but still a good deal.

 

This The last coin on my mind on my 50 mile drive to the show ...as I still have raw uncirculated specimens from rolls purchased years ago.
So what would you give for and 2nd gen PCI green slab with an 1943 P/P variety noted on the slab......and its reverse is at least >10 degrees counter clockwise......rotated.....not to mention the rich target toning around the obv. rim.....& Full steps!
64 on the slab ....I'm thinking at least a +/☆ and if not a point higher grade.
Definitely A PQ....coin... $12.

 

This 23 Peace for 45.... was a nice pick an R-6 rariety vam 1 H

 

Picked this up on GC for $47.36 with buyer's fee. It'll arrive in about a week.
And the last auction appearance was 3 years ago at HA and sold for $192.

That's very nice. Does "inherited" qualify as "under $50 purchase"? I just visited my lock boxes and started going back through everything. I had to rent TWO bank boxes, and still they barely all fit. At first I was just overwhelmed with the volume. A couple of days ago I brought some back home and started going back through them. I've got some seriously BU Peace dollars that I overlooked because Morgans are my thing. Wow. I am blessed with such a gift from my father. I may go broke sending off coins to TPGs. I didn't realize at first how weakly Peace dollars are struck compared to Morgan dollars. I was pleasantly shocked with the quality he had. They had been locked up for 50 years before I laid eyes on them. I'll share some later on when I learn how to take a decent photo.

 

$30. Top 50 pick silver melt @ $ 22.92 at purchase ...no brainer.

 

It's crazy how many people used to put tape across a coin. What were they thinking?

 

"they have to be something that YOU bought" as defined on post #1 so I guess not. Otherwise I'd have a lot more to post! Grandpa had some cool coins.

Here's one I bought 5 years ago for $12. I had just discovered that the 1899 reverse type was used in 1900 in SF and I was cherrypickin'. Pretty badly damaged though. Within the past couple weeks I determined that two die pairs were used on these (see my thread), looked at it again, and it's the less common pair! Nobody geeks out on this stuff but me...

 

Probably taped into a birthday card in the 50's.

 

$48.50 after fees and shipping.. From GC none the less I'm happy to fill this hole in my set cheaply

 

Who is J.B.H.?

 

I've found nothing but a "JBH Coins" on FB. Probably just a guy that had at least part of his collection collection slabbed and paid to have it labeled as such.. but I could be wrong could turn out to be a somebody, in that case I would have expected to find more about it online

 

Ok, so with grading fees, it is over $50, but it is still great to cherrypick a 43/2-P off eBay for $13. Until the grading company skunks you with a details grade.



But you can't give up, don't ever give up. Crack that sucker out, send it to the other guys and make a boatload of money. Just kidding, NFS!

 

Congrats! I know photos can change everything , but I am not seeing the wheel mark NGC mentioned.

 

Ebay $42.10 total

 

That is because it doesn't exist. The best I can come up with is that there is some remnant planchet roughness at 6 o'clock that the NGC grader thought was post mint. Here is the larger thread about this coin, I don't want to hijack this thread.

GTG 1943/2-P Jefferson Nickel

 

I bought a whole collection of Morgan and Peace dollars that had been taped to a tree that was a trend I believe in the fifty's (1950) for anniversaries.

 

Add this to the list of "I don't have a lot of respect for NGC". I'll buy coins slabbed by them but PCGS and ANACS get more cred from me.
