Nice looking coin for its age.

 

No doupt from a collection that has not been bouncing around all those years.

 

The pic is just a bit blurry. Did you take a good look at the M in
Monticello ? The F and E in five also ? Red book shows a DDR for the
39'...thanks.....martha

 

Like this:

 

Just a bit clearer pics. Maybe a bit of zoom. Trying to help out the op.
He may have already glassed it with a 5x or
something before taking the pic....thnx

 

You don't get one like that out of circulation, WITH DD'ing (I don't; if you do, go buy a lotto ticket).

Mine is not; just a flipper / keeper.......

 

Notice that the ddr isn't only on Monticello but really seen on five cents.

 

Super clean one. That’s been in a collection for most of its life. I got a 39 not too long ago but looked more like collecting nuts. I don’t know where it is. May be in my change bucket as I only pull war nickels

 

I pull copper cents and pull silver but never really paid much attention to nickels unless I get a buffalo

 

No there's no market for them......hell I've got two complete ms sets no value in them .....the major varieties of the series are on a down hill trend for over 5 years Now!
If you're in the market for some top varieties in the Jefferson series now is the time to buy. As their prices are down.....

 

I also keep all pre 60s nickels. @nuMRmatist good looking nickel


I maybe wrong but...

is that a 39 with a 40 reverse? It looks like it from the left handside of the steps is block shape strongly and what steps you can see is straight then norm...

 

Au. 55

 

Correct the rev. Of 40

 

Thanks. I'm not sure on '40 Reverse part; do I need to take another pic?

And yep - probably just got 'liberated' from a collection. Wish I'd seen it when I got it, to see if more were in cashier's drawer.

35 years ago, at Fosdick's Seafood Greenville NC, I got 2 (TWO) Silver Roosies in change. HEART STARTED RACING. I got 47 more from cashier (1 'got away), AND 2 rolls SOLID Silver Roosies for FV.

I also keep pre-'60 Jeff's; I guess most aren't worth .10 tho'...

So mine is, or is not '40 Rev ?
