This thread needs pictures! Some of these Westward Journey nickels are available in prooflike condition, but not all of them. Here is a Buffalo...
It is clearly a late die state, but there is more wear than I would like on an AU. I would call it EF-45 (the Skidaway Island coin posted above is...
Your pictures make it look like it has been wiped, probably before it was put in an album for a long time. It appears AU to me, although the...
Good luck to all in the Southeast! I live in Charleston, SC, and I am keeping a close eye on the storm as well. It's looking like it is going to...
Very nice coins, all! OP - the relief on the obverse looks extremely high. I like it!
A spot? A scratch? An inter-dimensional portal to an alternate plane of existence? I don't know. But it isn't a D.
Nope, not a joke. There aren't many serious collectors of SBAs, but some of them do look for FT coins. I built a set a few years ago, but have...
I'm not sure what your goals are in the hobby, so you can correct me if I make any bad assumptions. However, if you are buying coins in order to...

Well that's purdy. Congrats on a beautiful coin!
Definitely no gold bean - this is maxed out at 65. Green bean is questionable as well, due mostly to the scratch on Liberty's arm. I think...
The fields below the eagle and the area to the left of Liberty appear to show hairlines. I would grade this AU details, cleaned.
And this is why you should *never* trust a PCGS "truview" picture. They are glamour shots - extremely optimistic, overly saturated, juiced...
Cool find! While it might not be a major rarity, it is still unusual.
That is pretty cool.
Full Talons makes just as much sense as FH, FS, FT, or FBL. Have you ever actually attempted to collect Full Talon SBAs? They are harder to find...
The toning appears attractive, and OMMs are usually desirable. If there is no interest in it at the price you are asking, perhaps your price is...
Don't confuse him. It is machine doubling. This is very common, and has no premium.
I concur with the collective wisdom of the board, and post here Exhibit 2: a 1936D in similarly spectacular condition. You will note that the D...
Grading coins is the single most important skill for a coin collector to have. Plenty of books will show you pictures of coins in various grades,...
