<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 2262660, member: 15309&quot;]I&#039;m not so sure about that Jason.&nbsp; If the coin was in PCGS plastic, I would agree, he could name his price.&nbsp; But the coin is in NGC plastic, not PCGS.&nbsp; And while that solidifies the FS designation, the grade of this coin is favorable to say the least.&nbsp; There is no way this coin crosses to MS67 in PCGS, it just isn&#039;t clean enough or lustrous enough. </p><p><br /></p><p>So Ben has an NGC MS67 5FS that would only be a PCGS MS66 FS which is worth a few hundred dollars.&nbsp; In my experience, most of the fanatical Jefferson Nickel collectors (especially variety collectors) who are willing to spend thousands on a Jefferson want their coins in PCGS plastic.&nbsp; Therefore, Ben is going to have to find an NGC Jefferson Nickel Registry collector who is willing to spend big money.&nbsp; They are out there, but not real easy to find.</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, the last one of these sold on Heritage yielded $1,762.50.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/jefferson-nickels/nickels/1944-s-5c-ms67-five-full-steps-ngc-ngc-census-6-0-pcgs-population-29-0-numismedia-wsl-price-for-problem-free-ngc-/a/1206-7666.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/jefferson-nickels/nickels/1944-s-5c-ms67-five-full-steps-ngc-ngc-census-6-0-pcgs-population-29-0-numismedia-wsl-price-for-problem-free-ngc-/a/1206-7666.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515" rel="nofollow"><b>1944-S 5C MS67 Five Full Steps NGC.</b> NGC Census: (6/0).
