NGC Jefferson Nickel Submission - raw and crossovers - Shootin for the ★'s and Steps

I'm working on building up my registry set for Jefferson Nickels 1938-1964. I'm going for 'Full Steps' for every year where possible and of course, toned for the most part.
I just sent off these guys. There should be some exciting results and certainly boost me up the Registry rung.

I welcome anyone's opinions. Unless they differ from mine of course.


1941 D - I guess MS67★6FS or higher. It is the nicest nickel that has ever crossed my desk, and I've seen a lot... If any nickel I have (or ever will have) has a chance at 68, it's this one.


1943 S - I guess MS65★5FS - Spectacular rainbow. Not uncommon in higher grades, but this one is gorgeous and it's one of the first toners I acquired.


1950 D - I guess MS66★5FS - Beautiful vivid color.


1958 - I guess MS65 5FS. This one is rare with full steps above MS64.




1938 S - I guess MS66+ or MS66+ 5FS. Colorful with wet luster. The steps are a little wavy, so I'm not sure how NGC will grade them.



1944 D - I guess MS67★5FS - This is one of the most gorgeous war nickels I have seen. Let's hope NGC agrees.


1942 D - I guess MS67★5FS - Beautiful color.


1946 D - I guess MS66★5FS - Common with full steps through grades 66. A 67 from NCG would be very good news.



1953 S - I guess MS66★ - I'm not going to find the ultra rare FS anytime soon, so this guy should grade high and deserves a ★ for it's ridiculous luster and stunning eye appeal.




PCGS Crossover - show me the steps!

These went in for crossover. I am expecting all of them to crossover as 5 Full Steps. If they inherit the PCGS numeric grade, that would be spectacular news all around.

1942 P Type 2 - PCGS MS67+



1957 - PCGS MS66


1945 P - PCGS MS66


1947 S - PCGS MS66

I already have the top pop all alone with a 1947 S MS675FS, which is this one:


1938 D - PCGS MS66 - OGH - This one will most likely move up to a 67.


1949 S - PCGS MS66


1952 S - PCGS MS66


1940 S - PCGS MS66+ - (scratches are on the holder)



Thanks for looking.
I will update in 3-4 weeks with the grades.

Beautiful Nickels. Looking forward to the grades!

 

I have a 1964 toned nickle is it worth anything

 

OMG he is alive. I like the 2nd 1947-S great color. where you been hiding ?

 

Hi Yoda. Just been very busy with work and life and what not. That doesn't mean I didn't stop enjoying playing coins though. Things have slowed down so now I have a little time to hang with my coin buddies and preach the word of toners.

 

Without an image...it's only worth 5 cents.

 

Wow!! Very nice Nickels. I need to pick up a couple as a Type coin, they sure are attractive with that rainbow toning.

 

Those are some nice looking nickles

 

Did someone say toned nickels? Sweet looking bunch ........glad to see you posting again!

 

Greg is back! Leave some toners for us lol

Great Collection! All are exceptional detail and eye appeal.

 

Some beauties there; I hope you'll share updates back on this thread so I don't miss it!

 

Very nice looking nickels ya got there, looking forward to seeing your update.

 

Not as long as it's a nickle, no. If it suddenly morphs into a nickel, perhaps.

 

@gbroke: The 1941-D and 1944-D are absolutely breathtaking. Superb! I don't think the 41-D will go 68 though...67 max, if NGC is having a crappy day 66.

 

Very nice! I hope the grades meet your expectations.

 

A man can dream.

beautiful coins!

The 1958 seems to have a small interruption in the steps just to the right of pillar 3

The 1945 and 47-S both have dings that interrupt steps

 

You may be right. Lets hope it isnt enough to void FS. That could be a $1000 interruption.

 

Every time I see people spell it this way, I say aloud, "Nick-Lay."
