<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 3204445, member: 15309&quot;]There is absolutely nothing wrong with striving to have a matched set of coins, especially when your are talking about an album collection.&nbsp; My NGC registry set includes both untoned, monochromatic toned, and rainbow toned coins and it gives a dramatic appearance when viewed together.&nbsp; However, I also have an album collection and outside the war nickels, I only have a few that have rainbow toning.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1948-S is a real treat IMO.&nbsp; The quality from this year varies greatly and it produced a number of different profiles. </p><p><br /></p><p><b>EDS-Well Struck &amp; Satin</b>:&nbsp; This coin resides in my album collection.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/K9HKKmm.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>LDS-Lustrous &amp; Mushy from die wear</b>:&nbsp; For those who hold luster paramount!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/6FqiVxe.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>MDS-Good Luster &amp; Decent Strike</b>:&nbsp; A pretty coin but not exemplary.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/RsHoTao.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>EDS-Registry Quality</b>:&nbsp; Superlative in every way with only a few minor blemishes.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/1ek0Sfm.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Some date/mm in the Jefferson Series are very restrictive in that you are forced to accept a coin that would not otherwise conform to your collecting standards just to fill the slot.&nbsp; Other years have an abundance of quality examples making it difficult for your coin to stand out from the crowd.&nbsp; The 1948-S is one of those years where the great coins are out there but you gotta go find them.&nbsp; It is the coin hunter&#039;s delight.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
