Simple nice coin(upper end VF to me) and a decent picture. Just not sure how much the picture matches the color of the coin. Still I think it is...
Get the ANA grading guide book - it usually points to where wear can be seen. In this case the very first thing I noticed was all the rim chatter...
Lets see - 1879 business strike shield nickel mintage about 25k. I also own 1793 wreath and 1799 large cents - both mintages in the lower 40k...
Got to admit I don't always put in my max willing bid. There are a few times on a key date coin I might keep creeping the bid up - so long as I...

Well I like the 45 better, but I think you can beat that price. I think the 40 is priced correctly just a little two dark for my tastes. Neither...
