Since the 1951 posts I have been sneaking them in as I go along. I can&#039;t, unfortunately, go back in this thread and insert the others with the other coins of their year. So instead, for the next week or two I will post the seven extra proofs as a bit of a bonus.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>1938 Proof</b> - PCGS/CAC PF 66</p><p>This sold earlier this year at Heritage (<a href="https://coins.ha.com/itm/jefferson-nickels/nickels/1938-5c-pr66-pcgs-cac-pcgs-population-929-269-ngc-census-485-201-cdn-100-whsle-bid-for-problem-free-ngc-pcgs-p/a/131810-21283.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://coins.ha.com/itm/jefferson-nickels/nickels/1938-5c-pr66-pcgs-cac-pcgs-population-929-269-ngc-census-485-201-cdn-100-whsle-bid-for-problem-free-ngc-pcgs-p/a/131810-21283.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515" rel="nofollow">Internet U.S. Coin Auction #131810</a>). Then it turned up at David Lawrence (<a href="https://www.davidlawrence.com/rare-coin/1515564" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.davidlawrence.com/rare-coin/1515564" rel="nofollow">1938 5c PCGS/CAC Proof 66</a>). Now it has a home with me.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have no qualms about removing proofs from their plastic so I can get better pictures. The proofs from the fifties and sixties actually cost me less than the cost of grading. What did I have to lose? With or without the holder they&#039;re only $5-10.</p><p><br /></p><p>But, darn, that silly CAC sticker - I just can&#039;t quite bring myself to break this out.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]837791[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
