1941-D Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67 5FS: $40

I purchased this coin as a PCGS MS66 for a very reasonable $20 and thought that it had a good chance to upgrade to MS67 and it looked to have full steps as well so I cracked it out and sent it to NGC with a $20 grading fee.

Based on the eye appeal of this coin it will very likely sell above price guide.

 

1943-P Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67 5FS: $33.64

I purchased this war nickel as part of a fantastic capital plastics war nickel set for $150. Containing 11 coins, each coin cost me $13.64. This will not be the only coin from that collection featured tonight.

1944-P Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67: $35

I purchased this coin as a part of a duo of iridescent war nickels on E-Bay for $30 total, each coin costing $15. The other coin didn't have good enough surfaces to warrant grading but this one carried the water pretty well.

With the combination of the delicate rainbow toning and the iridescent nature of the toning, this coin will likely sell above price guide.

 

1944-P Jefferson Nickel NGC MS66 5FS: $33.64

The second coin from that spectacular capital plastics collection also carries a cost of $13.64 and a grading fee of $20.

1944-S Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67: $26.22

This coin hails from yet another capital plastics collection and the price per coin was $6.22 with a $20 grading fee. I have to say that I have never been more comfortable submitting a war nickel and expecting an MS67 grade as the surfaces of this coin are near flawless. This coin resides in my Home Made War Nickel registry set and has been named the $and Dollar Nickel.

1945-D Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67: $20.75

This coin hails from a Dansco album that I paid a mere $0.75 per coin to obtain. I plucked it, sent it to NGC for $20, and got myself another MS67.

1951-S Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67: $28.32

I bought this coin as part of a multi coin lot on E-Bay for $8.32. The other coins were break even at best but this coin absolutely sparkled in the seller's photos and I was convinced that I had a homemade MS67 51-S on my hands. Alas, when I got the coin in hand, the colors were not near as vibrant I resigned myself to expect an MS66 from NGC. What can I say, it was a good submission. Most people would absolutely include a homemade MS67 51-S in their registry set, especially one as attractive as this, but my 51-S registry coin is a stunning MS67* and isn't going anywhere.

1953-D Jefferson Nickel NGC MS67: $22

This coin came from a Dansco album that I paid a scant $2 per coin to obtain and also incurred the $20 grading fee. I can't describe how hard it is to find MS67 quality 53-D Jeffersons, definitely one of the tougher date/mm to find.

Ok, Smackdown over!

 

Kick ass! Awesome job! I'm loving that 51s.

 

Low grade 1787 "Horned Bust" Connecticut Copper (needs a dip) and a ‘37 silver quarter for under $20 plus shipping.

 

Hey bud, been a long time. As always your ability to pull gorgeous Jeffies is amazing and the total value does not surprise me at all. I’m thinking I need to send you my Jeffies for imaging lol.

 

1. What's up SSS.

 

Hey how are you?

 

Picked this one up a while back for $5. I was never able to take good images of it until recently and would like to see what your thoughts on it are. Especially Lehigh96, I'm not an expert on Jeffies like you are and any information you can provide would be great, thanks.

 

Those steps look hammered.

Do I see some hints of green discoloration on the obverse? Maybe a tinge of PVC action?

 

Is that a proof?

 

To tell you the truth I’m not sure that’s why I am waiting for @Lehigh96 to give me the scoop on it

 

I will give it a shot, then, while we’re waiting. This is a 1942-P business strike.


This is a 1942-P proof strike. Notice the difference in the steps, and how they match up to the steps on your coin. The general level of detail on the reverse is also closely matched.



So it seems that your coin is, indeed, a proof.
