I really don't know what you guys are seeing in this coin but I have to dissent. This is a rather common monochromatic toner with some peripheral...
IIRC, your original guess was 12X wholesale ($700). I think that is an excellent guess except you forgot to allow for the fact that the coin is...
Well Duke you wouldn't win the coin, but your guess was the closest. I paid $365 (6.3X Wholesale) for the coin. Post or pass my friend!
I won the 1947-S as well!
Alright, lets keep this moving forward with my most recent acquisition. A 1949-D Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67* with rainbow toning. Numismedia...
Now that was tricky! Would you mind posting Disruptek's photos because the ones you posted are not his. He has outstanding photos and uses some...

Here is an example of a slider. [img] I own it and don't know where the wear is!
It is more rare, but yes, I have seen toned bullion coins (specifically ASE's) sell at a premium. I don't collect bullion products like rounds or...
When I said that it has no numismatic value, I was only saying that the coin is bullion and should be priced based on intrinsic value. The toning...
Here is my advice on how to have your raw Jefferson Nickels graded. I have broken the coins down into three groups: Possible Full Steps, Definite...
While I find the coin attractive, I can't assign any numismatic value to the coin and as others have stated it is basically bullion. I don't know...
Unfortunately, NO, I was outbid.
I think you will find that almost all of the MS69 Mercury Dimes are fantastically toned.
Well you guys know that I love my registry set of Jefferson Nickels, but did you know I also have a crackout album collection?...
