Old ANACS (original owner) holders, buffalo nickels, rotated dies...

My father owns these and was wondering if the rotated dies makes these worth more and also if the coins would possibly grade higher? He's the original owner of them since the late 70's.

With todays standards, quite possibly.

They certainly add interest. I couldn't say.

 

Nice herd ya got there .....I say all signs point to yes!
They also need to be checked for varieties

 

Quite possibly there would be additional value for dies being rotated, but only to a specialty collector and probably only according to the degree of rotation. There is an additional fee from ANAC's for re-holdering these plus a fee for attribution, etc. These are all fairly common dates with the exception of the 1913D which is worth around $385.00 in the condition on the slab. It's a call only can make. Expense vs worth.

 

Heck, I'd leave 'em be. I like the old holders.

 

I second that as they may be worth more as they set.

 

They all look like they're within tolerance except the 1914. I don't think real premiums get attached until you hit 45 degrees of rotation, for the most part, and I think that one's not quite there.

 

He's not going to mess with them. He's just wondering. His health isn't too great anymore and it's my mother I need to worry about hawking his coins. The reason I keep asking about his coins for him is because he doesn't want her to get ripped off.

 

As a generality - I don't know how rare rotation is with Buffalos, but you find it on virtually all issues - rotation has to exceed 45 degrees or more to become of more than passing interest.

 

And yes maybe common dates however they are harder to find in the holders they are in, varieties is another consideration , as well as the toned, heck the one 1914 is a woodie. No they should be worth a lot more as is ....I would pay more if in the market for the date and all listed above.

 

Early days of Amos Press' ownership of ANACS. So they were pretty strict on the grading still...

Yes they might upgrade.

I happen to like the SWH and would leave them alone.

 

I love the small soap bar holders!! I wish ANACS still used them, I'd get all my coins put into them.

 

The MS65 1914 could be a 2 feather variety. Google that and recheck it. Some 2 feather coins go for a nice premium.
