Post your nickels

I want a 13 like that one day. I still need one for my 7070.

So I came full circle on my 1883 Liberty Barber Proof Nickels this week.

Last year I picked up one at auction, and was able to attribute the "error" coin as a 1/1 Overdate 1883 No Cents Proof in PF67. I had it attributed and documented, and recently sold it. Which led me to be able to pick this one up and put away some extra Christmas money!

It almost looks like it will go Cameo in hand (with my rookie eyes)- but I'm very pleased with the purchase.

This arrived today!

 

Another war nickel arrived:

 

3 a.m. insomnia buy. Let's just say early bird bargain.

The obverse side of the slab is scratched pretty bad.

 

Another one for my war nickel set:

 

Are you on the NGC Registry? If not, maybe you should be. Looks like a nice set you are building.

 

That is a really nice coin. You do have a nice set going on. Thanks for sharing.

 

Who knows? I might just do a registry set. All but three will be 5fs. It would cost a bundle to do FS across the board, provided I could even find decent examples. Thanks for your feedback. I’ve had a lot of fun putting this set together.

 

Are your other two non full step nickels the 44-P & 45-P?

 

45-P and 45-S

 

First time poster here...found book of old Nickels in storage and wondering if they are of any value now or should i save them for future grandkids.

1942 -1945 P D & S for each year
1970 S proof
1974 S proof
1975 S proof
1976 S proof i can clearly see perfect steps on the proof coins but guessing not old enough to be worth anything.
Havent had chance to take picture but i can if needed let me know. Thanks guys

 

I wonder what I'll get out of these rolls? Even though they are CWR, the bank has been out of business since '74

 

Another war nickel acquisition.

 

After this one, only one to go for a war nickel set — and it’s on the way!

 

This completes the war nickel set. Only two graded by PCGS and NGC combined at MS68.

 

You have gathered up some really nice coins. Thanks for sharing.

 

Thanks! They came from here, there and everywhere.

 

Nice additions and congrats on finishing out the set. Its been a pleasure to watch. Also this is a rare holder if I can remember correctly. Buy the coin and not the holder of course, but its a nice plus. If I recall - only for a short time did NGC use the "T" for toned and the "W" for white on their labels. I could be wrong though as I am 5 Modelos deep..

 

I had read that they did that, but that coin is actually the first time I can remember seeing one.
