    How about blue and pink :) And does it have to be MS or can it be a Proof ?

    62 Proof Jeffersons were some of best nickels for color... I almost buy a 62 proof set just for the nickel.

    Well I wouldn't quite say that Ken, but I can say that I used to give them away :)

    Back when I used to collect US coins I ran across another forum member who had specialized in Proof nickels for many years And he wanted to move on to something else. So I bought, I think it was 180 of them from him as a lot. They were various dates, mostly from the 60's and 70's with a few 50's thrown in, and every single one having the beautiful neon toning of various colors.

    And then I promptly began to give them away in small lots of anywhere from 5-10 to other members of the various coin forums I participated in at the time. Back then people weren't near as familiar with the neon Jeffs as they are today, and doing that was my way of "spreading the word" if you will ;)
