[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1515279, member: 22585"]Waiting for the feds to come get me since I stole this beautiful Jefferson war nickel set. [SIZE=2][B]The planning:[/B][/SIZE] Although I am not actively buying Jeffersons, I still window shop. My spidey senses started tingling when I came across this war nickel set. It popped up on my radar with 1 day left and a $30 bid. I could tell this set was going to be a real beauty. Although the sellers images weren't bad, they didn't capture the color. [B]The heist:[/B] I threw a $50 bid at it just to say I tried. No way I would win it. I couldn't believe it when I won it the next day for $49.88 + shipping. As you can see. My gut feeling about them was correct. They are lovely. [SIZE=2][B]The spoils: [/B][/SIZE] It came in the original Capital packaging, which I suspect has a lot to do with the toning.
