<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Coinsnake, post: 909715, member: 25460&quot;]2 years ago my Dad gave me a large amount of his collection. Among this was an 1865 3 cent nickel that he bought for $4 at an auction in 1962 when he was 10 years old. This sparked my interest as I had never seen one before. With wanting to keep this coin in the family I would like to send it in to NGC for grading. I photograded it with the ANA app on my iPhone and it is IMO MS63. The thing is it&#039;s denticles are smooth from about 5 o&#039;clock to 7 o&#039;clock on the reverse. They are also somewhat faint on the obverse around the 12 o&#039;clock area. It also has some copper colore streaks on both sides. I&#039;m guessing from an inconsistent mixing of the copper-nickel alloy. Otherwise it is an extremely clean coin for it&#039;s age. I am wondering if this is common for these coins or if any of you have experience with them, a little more info. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thx</p><p><br /></p><p>Coinsnake[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
