Welcome to the forum. Nice nickel. Graded Proof 70 but by ICG. ICG tends to really overgrade modern coins. Value? Tried to search Ebay for completed listing with not much luck. If coin would of been in a NGC or PCGS holder coin would of been worth big bucks. I am guessing that one graded by ICG somwhere in the $20 range.

 

They thanks a lot. Thats good to know, I have not done much researched on the certified coins. That helps.

 

No problem at all. NGC and PCGS are the most respected of the grading services. Checked NGC census and they don't even have a 1977 proof nickel graded a perfect PF70 so guessing that ICG PF70 would get around NGC or PCGS PF69 money which is 15-20 bucks. Happy collecting.

 

Very nice nickel. I have a few older ICG graded coins that are right on as far as grading is concerned. I'll probably cross them to NGC sometime next year.

 

Thanks, ya maybe i should do that with this one, im just not sure if its worth it. If the nickel is only worth 15 or so, might not be.

 

It would likely be very difficult to sell this coin for much more than a few dollars.

 

yeah if that coin was in a NGC or PCGS slab that coin might be an $500-800 coin. in the ICG holder not much at all. i have only owned one ICG slab. it was a morgan dollar and i broke that sucker free. you should really only go for PCGS or NGC. the coin does look nice but probably not worth resubmitting to NGC or PCGS as it might only get PR69UCAM OR DCAM and those are easy to come by.

 

Only completed listing for a 1977 ICG proof nickel was a pf67 and went for 6.85. Fudged on the high side figuring an Ebay auction and someone really thinking that was a proof 70.

Would like to the mint mark, but as is. I would have to say about $35

 

$35 isnt too bad. here is another image through the plastic.

 

Looks like the mint mark might be repunched. I would look a little closer.

 

I don't see PR-70 in that Jefferson.

PR-65 at the very best, possible 67 no higher. About $1.50-$2.50 value.
