So if you can still get one from the mint, why are these listed on Ebay for $10k to $20,000? Is anyone actually paying $20k for these? Are they...
Fantastic old slabs! I love those! This is the one with the gold stamp on the outside plastic, right? Not stamped on the inner white core?
How old is she exactly? Depending on the age, the recommendations might vary significantly. For example, if she's 10-11, a couple of books would...
What do you see that you think might be an error?
Not to derail the thread, but depending on what you collect I recommend using this website: https://www.sixbid.com/en/ It aggregates a whole...
First - collect what you like and can afford. If you like these coins with problems, then knock yourself out. Just, don't be disappointed when I...

My guess is, the graders had several choices of problems on this coin, and that's the one they went with. My guess is, this coin spent some time...
I will take your word for it, because you are the expert on nickels - but yes, that is exactly what I did. I guessed 65 5FS, for precisely that...
Wow, that is a ridiculously good fake. Sure would have fooled me! Thanks @Jack D. Young and friends for all the work you are doing to search...
Absolutely beautiful luster quality on this coin! Obverse is a 65+, but the wounded eagle lowers the grade. I'm not convinced it should lower it...
The raised disturbed metal around the gouge would tend to indicate that this is post-mint damage.
That is an ultra-premium 64. Easily 64+, and it has a good shot at 65 if you were to resubmit (granted, its a common date so not worth it). (For...
