Next year anyway. Maybe.

 

a real beauty!

 

this design is absolutely hideous. I'm going to call the Ford Edsel of the coin community. I may have to buy one because it's just so ugly. and because of that a low mintage. Just my opinion.

 

Even the eagle gives it 2 wings down. Lol.

 

I walked into a pawn shop near home and came away with 3 Walkers and & Mercury's. I also talked to another bank where I do business and they are more than happy to allow me to purchase coins from them. I'm a happy camper.

 

I still have the one that started this thread.

 

Agreed. The design is hideous. That headband is distracting and not to get political but it's feels like forced PC. I'm all for an African American lady liberty if the design is attractive but this one missed the mark

 

Purchased through Instagram

 

Dang

 

The seller said this was VF-XF. Am I crazy to think he underestimated the grade? What's your guess? (iPhone pictures until I can do better.)

 

just a nice set of 1944 wartime silver nickels

 

From ebay, in an old small ANACS holder.

Already posted as my favorite acquisition of 2016, but it_is a newp.

 

Watch this. Pull it out and take photographs every 3 months for the next couple of years and you will most likely have a record of a nice progression
