Now you are getting close, but it is not a 54-D/S.
Tough to evaluate luster on this one. A bunch of little marks on both sides. I think it is MS64.
I don't know much about IKEs but that just doesn't look like an uncirculated coin to me. The obverse toning is nice but the reverse is a disaster...
There is definitely high point wear on this coin. The first photo makes it look cleaned so I am going to say AU details.
I don't see any wear, and the luster & color looks very good. There are some hairlines on the obverse but I don't think they put it in a GENUINE...
Not a 64-D, look closer guys!
Okay, so everyone has heard of the full step (FS) Jefferson Nickel. But what about those Jefferson Nickels that can't even manage to have one...
Matt, just for clarification, you are talking about the dark brown toning in the protected areas of the devices and lettering right? Not the...
I don't think I have the ability to alter my photographic style at this point. I will say that from a luster stand point in hand, A is superior...
If those photos are accurate, it looks like it is dripping with luster. The surfaces are very clean. I see no reason not to assign a premium gem...
I don't know, I don't mess with coins. Honestly though, I don't think they change the grade of the coin.
You are the expert, why don't you tell me what the price should be? I will even use periwinkle in the description, think I see some on the reverse.
Which of these 1940 Jefferson Nickels would you rather have in your collection and why? Please vote in the attached poll for the coin you prefer...
Trolling on a Monday night, you miss football that much huh?
No, I read the thread, hit reply, was interrupted by a phone call, and then posted my reply. But hey, thank you so much, you have been very...
When I first read this thread, that link was not there, it was a link to a topic on the CU forum.
Man you are good! Coin A is indeed MS67 and resides in my NGC Registry Collection. [IMG] Coin B is raw but I grade it MS66 with an outside...
I think the surfaces of this coin are certainly gem quality if not premium gem. While I don't really like the toning or the overall eye appeal...
That is awesome, it just got me $10 off my next submission. How do you use the program, is there a form?
Deeply toned and the luster appears muted. I'm going with MS63 and I agree that a sulfur laden envelope probably caused the toning.
