For your enjoyment

Here's one of the coins that I am planning on submitting to NGC for grading.

besides enjoying the view, if anyone would like to predict a grade, I'd be happy to hear the opinions!

Sure is a beauty.

 

I'm enjoying!!

 

That's a sweet coin, did you have it for a while or stumble upon it? Also are all nickels that have FS worthy of being slabbed?

 

Nice nickle I say 66 5 FS

 

I've had it a few years. Not all FS nickels are worth slabbing. You have to look at the value raw vs. the value slabbed and determine for yourself.

I have a definite grade opinion on this coin, but I wanted to hear others first.

 

Is the rim irregular on the obverse around 6-7 o'clock or just look that way from lighting?

 

no that's the way the rim is. weird, isn't it?

 

Okay, thanks. That is weird.

With that I will wager my guess: 65 5 FS

 

:eat: Now that makes me hungry for Jeff's. An easy 65, 5 steps?...

 

Does anybody think these small areas will keep it from getting Full Steps? For a;; I know, it could be part of the design. I've seen a million but never got beyond the date and mintmark.

 

Yea, thats why I put down 5 steps with a question mark...

 

Now I got fingerprints on my screen. Yes, there is only 3 steps, the 4th is broken. The 5? I had was for questioning the 5th step, but I counted wrong. oops...

 

Here is my five cents - from one of the worse CT grader at this time.

MS65, 5 FS

Is there a die mark on the collar?

Appears to be bit of rim defect at the 6:00-7:00 region? If so, then maybe MS63/64 with details.

 

Gonna say MS-64... no fs...

 

I'm saying NGC will give it MS66 FS.

 

I'd say 65 and no FS.
