For now at least.
Indeed, the '55-S was the holy grail for my brother and me too. There was much we based our hopes on what we read in The Red Book. We were living...
True, but there is an eBay dealer from the Harpers Ferry WV area (not exactly sure where, but in that part of WV) that has some very fine Franklin...
Indeed! My dad fostered us into collecting back in the mid 1950s when most of these Wheats were very common. Even so, it took my brother and I...
That's amazing! All of these pulled from circulation?
I have many with a similar appearance—perhaps as many as 30. Quite seriously, if you are looking to collect Jeff nickels with that sort of effect,...

You are hilarious! I guess I should have let this sit in a record bin when I saw an original of this priced at 88¢ back in 1960. I sold it on...

Yep. I'd venture those coins were rolled ~ 50 years ago.
Nothing at all...just an aside.
Thank you for saying so. This nonsense as noted above has been aimed at me more than once for finding nice coins in a Coinstar machine....
Yep. Thanks for making me go look at mine—a proof that is beginning to tarnish in the lower left quadrant.
A beautiful example of an SLQ... this one for example, only $36K....
