Congratulations Wiggam! Please select your prize and PM me with your mailing address.

Great Job!

 

congrats wiggam! and thanks lehigh for the contest!

 

Thanks for the contest!

I think I will have to go with that nicely toned 1949-D. As a plus, it will be my first Tpg graded coin, what a beauty to start with!

 

Swish,

I am sure you know this, but you were sooooooo close with your first guess. If you had not thought that the 1943-P was full steps, you would have been the winner. It is curious that the area of the coin that disqualified this coin from full steps is routinely ignored on 1943-P Doubled Eye. In fact, my MS67 5FS shows the same area of weakness/bridge on the 2nd & 3rd step between the 3rd & 4th pillar.

I would like to send you a consolation prize if you that is okay. Please PM me your mailing address so I can send you the coin.

Another great job!

 

you are too kind! thank you lehigh!

 

:headbang: I was soooo close too
Thanks for the contest LeHigh!!

Congratulations to all of the winners and thank you to all of the participants. To see so many CT'ers publicly state that they love Jefferson Nickels is my reward (especially Travis). Maybe we should start a CT Jefferson Nickel club!

 

Thank you for a fun contest! :thumb:
