The first one showed (1962) is absolutely amazing! I have no clue on how to grade these, but they all look like high grade proofs 67 or better, but I can't tell a lot from those pics. Great, and I mean great 1962! (Lehigh if you are reading this, I wouldn't mind having a jefferson like that )
No no, I hate jefferson nickels... They are ugly, very ugly, but I will admit, they are better than the SBA and Ike... I dread the day when I will get a jefferson nickel for my type set... (Make that two, clad and silver war nickel)
The major factor in determining the grade of a Proof coin is usually the degree of hairlines. And that can't be seen in images, so there is no way to provide a meaningful grade guess. By that, I mean that they could probably grade within a 4 or 5 point range, for all we know.
I agree. Modenr (post 1950) proof coins are difficult to grade because they are generally all within a few points of 65 or so. This brings up an interesting question - I've never seen guidelines for specifically grading proof coins. They must exist. Does anyone have a link or a reference in the right direction? Thanks
