I went with MS 65 not FBL ...the luster is probably there but the black patch on the obverse and a few scattered hits prevent me from going higher...
I'm not sure. On one hand, I like the look better as-is vs. what I imagine it would look like dipped. On the other hand, if dipped properly, it...
I recall you had a group of coins where some looked closer to AT but others looked closer to MA (based on comparable ones being graded) where I...
@Lehigh96 I do see what you mean about the reverse of the toned example. The obverse on that one is much better. Why not list both coins for sale...
Weak strike, minimal hits, nice color = MS 65 for me
That's not on the poll :eek::p:D
Please guess the grade and use the poll. :) [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
MS 64 ....I don't see any significant hits but the color seems deep enough to potentially limit the luster, thus I went a step below gem.
I like it but it doesn't immediately jump out at me (I feel this way about many Buffalo and Jefferson nickels). So my score is 4.0
I'll take door #2 based on liking the color. I think the grades are within 1 point of each other with #1 being higher (66 and 65). The two longer...
Floor is open...
No worries! I used the poll and posted.
As mentioned by @longshot , it is unlikely that the color will significantly progress unless those holders have something in them (paper label) or...

Alert worked this time....but notice I was the first to post on this thread. :D
MS 63 PL ...baggy but not enough to fall to 62...the photo shows enough contrast to make me fairly confident it is at least a PL but not enough to...
I agree with @brg5658 As long as the label says what it is, there isn't much issue slabbing it. In fact, NGC adding all the info to the slab...
I've also seen the modern 80s-90s in PL but don't recall many earlier dates (I believe there are some PL war nickels too).
I went with MS 66 ...looks clean overall with only a few noticeable ticks on the cheek area. I'm guessing luster is solid. I personally think the...
@Lehigh96 is 1959 known to be a date more commonly encountered with semi-pl or is it just a coincidence that someone else also has one on eBay?...
