Lets see some Nickels if it's 5 cents lets post them.....

The head on the Buffalo, right? and the rims. I see it now.

...and on the front leg. If you look again, you'll also notice wear on the obverse. But certainly a great coin to own, no matter AU or UNC.

 

oh yeah, my best Buffalo. I suppose that I was a little eager, when I put it in the slab.... but after seeing your 66, I need to do some more seeking.

 

Very nice T1 MS 66 Buffalo!

 

New Zealand 5¢ Proof Coin

 

Those are some spectacular coins. Looks like you must have an enviable collection. Congrats on that.

 

This looks kinda like an RPM 002, doesn't it?

 

@Paddy54

Maybe? I had to use my 30x loupe and I now have a headache Would that RPM really add much of a premium on the coin? NGC has a LOT of those in really high grades.

 

that's the 1938 D RPM 002 nice variety. Well it is an 1938 D/D coin depending on the grade there's value there.

With variety RPM 002

Without variety



So yeah there is some premium... but the key is marketability.

 

Like any variety coin or a high grade key coin is finding a buyer willing to pay you for what it's worth .
Some coins may have a higher demand some even with the demand may take time to sell as most don't have deep pockets.
To me finding the variety is more important to my collecting needs then the value.
Some fill holes in albums....some fill holes in their varieties . The hunt is as fun as the find... will you make a million probably not but to each their own.

 

I'm sure Seattlite86 could arrange a price and payment plan that you be comfortable with....

 

ooh... that is Brutal. I think Seattlite86 should just get a nice raw variey that is a coin to be named later. Kinda like trades in the MLB.

 

That's amazing.

 

I've been looking for one of these for a few years now. I'd hoped to find one in the wild and I still might but happy to have picked this one up at a show today.
