<p>[QUOTE="whoopig, post: 49446, member: 2979"]Those are not original 1938 nickels. They were made by somebody other than the U.S. Mint. Nickels were only made of any silver content from 1942-45 and were only 56% silver. Your coins are not genuine currency. SEGS is not a very accurate TPG. If you sent the coins into NGC or PCGS they would not crossover at the same grade level and would come back lower and probably lose the Full Step designation. Always examine the coins in the holder and see if the coin matches the grade. This is why most TPG holders do not trade at anywhere near market price. PCGS and NGC will trade close to it, ICG will trade at about 80% and everyone else falls off rapidly.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
