<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jtwax, post: 36991, member: 696&quot;]I would have to admit that I do not always agree on the grading on some of my SEGS nickels but then again I don&#039;t agree on the grading on alot of other slabbed nickels either.</p><p><br /></p><p>The main reason I use them is for thier attribution abilities, step count grading, holder style, and price. (In that order). I have personally talked with Larry recently and he said that he verifies all attributions and if there is a discrepency we talk it out (email or phone) before anything is put on the holder. Larry is really a nice guy. I always send in my varieties with the respective page referencing that particular variety (IE: A copy of a page from the Cherry Pickers Guide or whatever other book) that way they know what I am looking at and it saves me $1 per coin as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>My avatar is that of the original design that Felix Schlag submitted for the Jefferson nickel. They were re-produced in 2002 by the Full Step Nickel Club (FSNC) in matte and proof finishes and are slabbed by SEGS. They are still available and are a really neat coin!

I have yet to get any of those examples in BU. They are pretty much just out of my reach price wise for now. Someday tho.... CONGRATS! I am about 3/4 of the way to having the Top-100. Definately glad to hear your getting more renewed interest!</p><p><br /></p><p>I have been concentrating on the lesser known Jeff varieties for some time now and have well over 400 dies. Because of all the new discoveries on a regular basis one will never be able to get a complete collection but it has been quite fun attributing and collecting some of the toughies. It&#039;s neat to get a new scarce variety that should be worth 3 times what a &quot;Doubled Monticello&quot; or &quot;Doubled Eye&quot; Jeff is worth. I recenty picked up the VERY tough 1952-S/S RPM-001. Check out the seperation on this baby! It&#039;s a nice early die state to boot. Paid $40 for her...</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.varietynickels.com/UNUSED/52s-rpm001.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for all your interests!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
