Yess cherrypicked the RPM's Also picked up 2 beautifully toned rolls of 1957 Jeffersons for $2.50 and $3.00. Just couldn't pass at that price!
You scored ! Nice haul. I remember seeing that Churchill when I was a kid. Left an impression on me - great piece.
Just sit down at a box of nickels with my X10 magnifier and quickly scan through all the war nickels and then glance through other dates that are known for RPM's and DD,s. Find some at every show I go to.
Yea, I don't known I guess about a year ago there was a post here about the ugliest coins and the Churchill was one of the ones posted. I said then that was one ugly portrait but had to have one. Well yesterday I'm looking through a "junk" box and glance over and there is a small cardboard box with about 20 five shilling coins in it for $.50 each they where all 1960 and 1965. I picked 2 of each. I don't know anything about these. Does anyone know if they even have any monetary value?
Dear Nickelman, I just found 5 of them in a coin shop in Twin Falls, Idaho for $2.50/ea--probably paid $2.00 too much for each, but they are big, heavy, and fun to have... esp
Very nice! I'm going to have to go to a show with you sometime! The last show I went too had few dealers that liked Jefferson Nickels, and the one guy that did had a few nice ones....the one I really wanted he decided wasn't for sale after all. Talk about fun! Speedy
i was at the show on Saturday for about 30 minutes - took a quick run through and decided to head out - too crowded. nice nickel finds - they would look nice in my set -Steve
