<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 1214422, member: 24633&quot;]In 2006, I decided to put together some 13-coin Westward Journey nickel sets with BU P&amp;D of each of the Peace Medal, Keelboat, Bison, Ocean in View and Return to Monticello. The three extra slots were for the different obverse images of Jefferson - facing left, partially forward-facing and forward facing. Since I already had one of each of the uncirculated designs in each set, I decided to use the proof coins for the remaining three. </p><p><br /></p><p>I was able to find an online dealer who had rolls of the proof nickels. He explained to me that he would submit the proof sets intact for grading and specified a minimum grade of PF69UCAM (or DCAM). He said that it wasn&#039;t worth the grading fees for anything less. So, the TPG would charge him a nominal fee for the ungraded coins and return them to him, and he&#039;d sell them off in rolls, rather than individually, to recover most of his costs. I bought 9 rolls of 2004-2006 proof nickels for $900.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
