I used to dislike the liberty head nickels, but they are growing on me. I have a couple, passed down to me by my parents. Here is the better of the two:
I looked at some at the show in Philly that would change your opinion. The high grade coins are beautiful!
I have a low-grade 13 T1 in my regular D-MM set, but wanted a nicer type coin for a long time before this one found it's way onto eBay with bad seller pics and not many bids.
Nice set. I'm thinkin of building a set of proofs. Would like for them to all be Cameo, but don't know if that is possible for all of the dates.
It's possible. All of mine will be DCAM or CAM and will be top pop when I'm done. Right now I'm trying to get a nice 'foundation' (hence the 66's) while I wait for the 67's and higher to come around. The nickels are more or less a side project though, and my main complete type set (in my sig) is what I am focusing on. Of course if there's a nice coin that I see I try to pick it up.
Here's the first one I bought for the set. Got it from Mr. Gale at Aspen Park Rare Coins (they are his pictures as well). NGC PF 66 Cameo
