<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ethan, post: 1971006, member: 68800&quot;]Well I dropped my daughter off at college and had to hit the small town coin store. I told the wife no more than $100. Well I lied. Not intentionally of course but as you will see, I could not pass some of these up..</p><p><br /></p><p>** Pics suck I know, maybe later if one wants to look closer I will retry it **</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>It started with seeing this, a 1970 Kennedy. No big deal except in was in a PCI Photograde holder. I had never seen one before and I had to have it. Says MS63 but I think it could pass for a MS64, no matter I bought the holder and not the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://s28.postimg.org/lde56shlp/1970_PCI_Photgrade.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>So after this, the wife is staring at me and asking why? You have those..no matter.</p><p><br /></p><p>I then picked up a P &amp; D 1974 Mint set. The Ikes looked fairly good.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then I saw a 1996 Mint set, you know the one with the W dime? This dime was in great shape and better than the one I had. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Next I saw a quarter, not a collector of them but this one grabbed me....not rare in the date but condition wise, wow..</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://s12.postimg.org/5r4dww971/1943_Washington_UNC.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Pictures bad but this thing is MS65 or better!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>So at this point the wife asks if she can see one of the halves. She liked it and said &quot;I will take it&quot;. Well, who was I to argue with her..</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://s9.postimg.org/704g3uvsv/1954_Franklin_Unc_Jo_Ann.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Its nice UNC for sure but a few scratches and I was not about to tell her no.</p><p><br /></p><p>So then I was near my limit and I saw this:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://s7.postimg.org/odvosbj4b/1994_P_Nickel.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Neat looking Nickel for sure but I do not like nickels. Something about this one though..</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://s30.postimg.org/u9pdu4rr5/1994_P_Nickel_REV.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>The strike was amazing, and although I do not know my &#039;steps&#039; yet, I think they are all there......well I asked about it and the cost and about had a stroke as the guy says it also comes with this:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://s29.postimg.org/fcfy2twfb/Jefferson_Dollar_UNC.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>An has a $2 bill with it...it is called a Jefferson Coinage and Currency set. Well I asked to see a Redbook and then I remembered, that is THE nickel I read about. So I bought this:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://s28.postimg.org/7u2cy79y5/Jeeferson_Currency_Set.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Well that made me go OVER my limit but I am happy. I have one of the rarest nickels in modern times!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Good day even though I will not see my daughter for a while but this score made the drive home easier I guess.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
