<p>[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 2580538, member: 13307"]As many of you know, I am a huge fan of Jefferson Nickels. Probably the only US series I'll ever complete (maybe I'll also finish the SBA set as well someday.) I've posted some of my best here from time to time, and in keeping with that I'd like to share a new pickup. </p><p><br /></p><p>For comparison, I'll also include my other two "best" 1944 D's - both NGC MS66 5 Full Steps. I'd love to hear some opinions on this coin and what you think NGC will give it. </p><p><br /></p><p>(My strategy is to save up a "hoard" of high quality coins and send them in as a bulk submission. Last group I sent in 120 coins...this hoard is currently up to about 3 rolls as well - not counting the 1994 P and 1997 P Matte Proofs I've been saving too - so maybe I'll be sending them in for grading early 2017.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, enough blabbing. Here are some coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>First, the newest addition to the collection. It's not underexposed - that, my friends, is a truly mirror like obverse field. Lovely ring of golden/pink/orange/sapphire toning on the obverse; the reverse is covered in that nebula-like rainbow toning that is soooo difficult to capture in a photo.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>NEW - 1944 D Jefferson Nickel (raw)</b></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]560065[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><b>OLD - 1944 D NGC MS66 5 Full Steps (both have same grade)</b></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]560067[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]560066[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
