Yeah, that seems to be one of Great Southern's specialties. Looks pretty heavily cleaned to me, but they often light their photos in such a way as...
Nicer date, too! Even if it doesn't carry a big premium in lower circulated ranges, it's nice to see something other than the usual 1922s and...
Sounds like eBay "unsearched rolls"...
The Scots? :)
MCM's a bit bigger and more established than your average eBay scammer. This is legit.
Not a US nickel. They're actually made from cupronickel, 75% copper and 25% nickel, and that alloy isn't magnetic. Some Canadian nickels (and...

Oh, I have no reason to believe the grade is incorrect. It's just unusual to see one that's seen that much honest wear without sustaining damage,...
Well, I certainly think it's bizarre to see a trade dollar worn down to G04 and still grading cleanly!
The CENT lettering on the front is indented and reversed. That usually means that another cent got pressed or pounded into this one. The coin shop...
