    First off I want to say a huge thank you to Todd Pollack! These photos are absolutely amazing, and I had a tough time choosing which photos to use, but I think I came up with some good ones. The photos aren't 100% complete, as he hasn't got the pics of the label yet, but I will edit that in a little later.

    Here are the transformations!

    Again I just have to drop my jaw, these pictures capture all the elements I so desperately tried to capture.
    Hopefully I can get a better camera soon, and see what I can do with it. ;)
    Thanks a million Todd (And I would HIGHLY recommend him)

    Thanks y'all. These pics do show the coin in hand pretty well, although I'd have no problems selling the coins with my pics. Even though they are different shots, my coins can look like they do in my photos, just with right lighting and angle lol
    I just need a better camera, and I could take better photos, I know I could. My pics are good for the most part, just don't show the color as much I would like, and not a whole lot of luster, but they are a lot better than when I started out, that is for darn sure!
    Well, hopefully I'll be getting my new camera soon. Like in 2015... :D

    I'm flattered but take a look at Lehigh96's Jefferson Nickels! Those are really something to talk about!
    You can like him up on the NGC registry! Absolutely outstanding. He also has many threads here showcasing the nickels. My two nickels I posted don't even compare to his collection

    Travis,

    Jim has seen my coins, I am only three spots ahead of him in the NGC registry for Jefferson Nickels (1938-Date). The only one he hasn't seen is my newest addition from the FUN Sale (see link below).

    Coincidentally, my newest coin looks like it could be a cousin of your 1943-D. The similarities in the iridescent toning are astounding.

    LOL! I was tracking that lot! Wanted to see how much it went for, it sure was pretty.
    And I had no clue about Jim...kinda hard to tell what somebody's tone is over the internet, just was thinking if he was new to the hobby he should totally check out your collection...:rolleyes:

    Greetings' TMoneyEagles,,,,this is Jim,,,an' yes,,,I've been to Pauls,(LeHigh96) collection several times! He specializes, an' considered by many, the connoisseur of
    connosisseur's, especially in the Toning'Dept, of Jefferson Nickels. I haven't seen anyone, except you, that had a coin, I thought was Remarkable-Toning , like Pauls'.
    I don't have the patience, it takes to collect those, takes alot of careful studing, and precise judgement when buying the Toned Jefferson. So,,,, keep up the great work,Tmoneyeagles, your in right area, as far as getting any help you might need from LeHigh96. chasindreams/

    Thanks ;)
    I've developed a patience for buying coins, as I used to be very hasty with it.
    I bought the Omaha Bank Hoard nickel from Paul :) The other one, I bought myself on eBay, from a seller with terrible scans, at retail. ;)
    I'm hoping to be able to work on my morgan collection a little more, after buying my toned proof indian cent, then get back to jeffersons soon. lol
    A long process, but hopefully I have the patience to do it ;)
