    Beautifu Find !
    I had to buy one to complete my album. That;s the one that evaded me.

    I could not guess the grade. I am still learning that.

    Awesome! Epic find.
    MS-something. Need bigger pictures to determine exact (well not exact but close as can be with it not in hand).

    A coin of that quality in a roll ? Sounds as if that was one which got away.
    Were there any other nickels from that period in there, e.g. within 10 years?
    Did the roll come from a banking institution ? Friend ? . . : >)

    Daaang that is a beauty! I don't collect nickels but the way that cartwheel shines on that coin... hm..

    I've also noticed that Jefferson tend to tone wonderfully on their own. I think I might have to get into collecting these

    That is nice looking mint state specimen! Hard to believe that came from roll searching. Perhaps there is a collector out there seeding the rolls they turn back in, or maybe some crack head cashed in grandma's collection!

    It looks like a 3 to me for sure. Great find. Last week, I found a '38-S in change, not quite as nice as this, but certainly AU.

    Tough coin to find, and to pull one like that... remarkable.

    Not worth submitting, though, imho.
