I like the Jefferson Nickel but the toning pattern is very unusual and I think some collectors may not be a fan of that type of toning. On the...
I agree. In order to guess what you paid for it we would need to know what grade the dealer assigned or at least what grade you thought it was....
I agree with Doug, MS65 all day long with a shot at MS66. It might end up in an MS65+ holder as well.
My advice is to contact this company that makes fantastic coin jewelry. I always use a money clip when I play poker and I have several money...
Can you post a photo of the coin. Full Steps is nice but the coin needs to be of gem grade to really be worth a whole lot.
1) In my experience, rainbow patterns drive bigger premiums than monochromatic patinas. However, surface area coverage is a relevant factor. A...
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...
I think if you re-read my statement you will realize that I have not changed my mind about the coin. I said that "only a hardcore toning fan can...
Dark mottled toning almost never brings a premium. In fact, this toning will often times hold and otherwise exemplary coin back in price since...
Let me photograph it, maybe you will change your mind.
What is the grade of the coin?
Again, coins from the 1958 mint sets are very common with fantastic rainbow toning. I would classify this toning as attractive but rather mundane...
I wouldn't do that. A PCGS MS66 FS will likely drive a higher price than an NGC MS67 FS. And remember, NGC has only certified two 1956-D...
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...
