GTG 1944-D Jefferson Nickel (NGC)

Please guess the grade of the 1944-D Jefferson Nickel shown below. I have attached a poll for you to cast your vote and you may select up to 3 different things: the numerical grade, Full Steps, and + grade.





I am testing out a new method to show the steps in this thread. As always, comments welcome, and please remember to vote in the poll.

64 no FS to many deep hits for it to go any higher.

 

Reverse has a little clash of the jacket, looks like it. That might be a repunched mint mark, too.

 

MS 65 not FS...steps look broken to me...and a few too many scattered ticks (especially on the reverse) is my reasoning behind the 65

 

66. Not FS. The break in the steps is in the circled area:

 

MS64, not full steps

 

66 RPM D/D FS-501

 

65. Repunched mint mark. No FS.

 

I voted MS66 not full steps, but no matter, that is a beautiful looking coin to me.

 

Anymore guesses on this one?

MS65 no FS,
Oh, and I clicked the other box for D/D FS 501

 

MS 66 not FS i don't think the bottom step is clear enough. The hits above cents keep it at 66. Also, if you applied for it I also think you got a RPM attribution

 

MS-65 no full steps

 

MS66 No steps.

 

I think the reverse hurts it a little. MS 65, and doesn't look like FS to me. But I will give it a variety for the MM. Looks like a
1944 D/D FS-501 5C MS

 

First to guess the assigned grade, and straight out the gate, well done.

First to notice the RPM

Well done!

First to attribute the RPM.



I gotta be honest, I was expecting MS65 on this coin. Does anyone know what one of these is worth in MS64? I see a PCGS MS64 on eBay listed for $100, but that is the only info I have. Btw, this is the first variety coin that I have found in the wild and had attributed by a TPG. It has been a long time coming I tell ya!

 

Glad you found one but I still think it's a 65.
