Looking at Wexler’s listing and the 2 at Coppercoins it looks like your coin is not a match. To assist others with your diagnosis, take pictures...
The 39 there is the more common reverse ‘40. The ‘38 reverse is less common and worth about 5X-10X more depending on grade. ‘39 Jefferson nickels...
Andrew - I suggest investing in an inexpensive loop to keep in your pocket for looking up close at subject coins. Which ones? It depends on you....
Nice - the V Nickel almost on queue!! The 55 is from the washed out obverse (most of what I've found is from that washed out hub). Curious on...
New 1964 nickels were produced in 1967. So the next time you are holding one you can wonder if it’s 55 years old or just 52.

Nice find, especially on a well circulated coin. I would go to maddieclashes.com to look that one up. Being it was a significant die clash, it...
I'd like to see a series of pictures for the Cent and the Quarter. Full pictures of the coins and individual pictures of the device areas (e.g.,...
That Pawn Shop coin sold for $30,550.00. Visit Heritage Auctions.
Excellent progress FF02!! It takes me a couple weeks to go through a box as I dive down a little deeper, but I've scaled back. I did find a...
By appearances, this looks like a plated 1944 cent. Weighing it will go a long way to verifying that it is a fake. A copper cent with plating...
