Looks like the #2 slab to me - but better let Conder say for sure.
Based on the pics and assuming the reverses are similar condition - $650 - $700 for each. JMO
Dunno right off - I don't often price full sets, it would take some looking. But R & I typically sells high end stuff with 65 being the bottom -...
Geeeez Bill, no reason to be sorry. Everybody makes a mistake now and then. Matter of fact, I do it so often that Roy even went so far as to go...
Robin - Congrats on the new book !! I know you are quite proud, and with good reason, of the work you have done helping to make this, and all the...
You're right - it is easy to see what happened, but it was the '80s not the '70s. One of the best ways is to look at an old copy of Coin World and...
No problem - you can have your say just the same as me ;) And I am trying to explain to everyone that the reasoning for thinking that way...
With slabbed coins it wouldn't really matter - serial numbers & barcodes. With raw coins - I don't know that you get a good enough and large...
I hate trying to grade these based on pics - it's just to dang hard to say without being able to tilt the coin in the light. So - if that is rub...
You might wanna look again Conder. NGC - I wasn't able to find PCGS's guarantee right off, but I'm pretty sure they do guarantee, in...

Bill - Check page 108 in the Nov.14,2005 issue of Coin World. There is a write up on the very same subject.
But how will you feel if & when they drop to under $10 for a 2 roll set ?
Yes it is. It's purely my opinion of course, but to me that coin has a few too many marks and breaks in the luster to warrant a 64 for that date...
Looks like PCGS to me - I'll say they graded it 64. But for an '81-S - it should be 63 ;)
I see them at the coin shows quite a bit - so they gotta be out there, never really looked for any though. cwtokenman should be able to offer more...
You're entitled to your opinion CT, but I see nothing underhanded or shady about it. It's not like it's a surprise waiting for you at the end of...
Don't hold me to it being the definitive answer, but I think about 10% are wide rim.
I'll take your word for it Bill that the nickel is struck on a sintered planchet - thus the color. But a sintered planchet has nothing to do with...
