The variety is not listed in Cherrypickers, so I don't know where else to look.
Good luck.

If you go here you will find this error.http://www.collectorscorner.org/pocket.html there is just no value on it, I did ask Chuck at coppercoins however he was not sure on a value.

I have only seen a couple sources that actually mentioned this variety, I have never seen one for sale or seen a suggested price for it... I ran extended searches on closed auction listings on ebay and nothing there, nothing on google... hmmm... priceless...I'll give ya $XX for it... lol

 

I have never even seen a picture of this variety... Besides the missing FS are there any other fine details missing from the coin or subdued from the polishing of the dies?

 

Not listed in CONECA's Top 100 Jefferson Nickel Varieties either.

I'd be curious to learn more about this.
It isn't well documented, so info is hard to find.

I'd have to assume that a number of coins were struck from an over-polished die, but that's just an assumption.
Would love to see some detailed photos, and possibly get an "FS" number assigned to it.

 

Since the initials are on the original model that is reduced to create the master hub, there are four ways you can have missing initials. Overpolished dies, severe die wear, filled die, and broken hub. (Raised letters on the hub have broken off.) Personally the only one I would find interesting would be the broken hub. But if the hub was broken there would most likely be MULTIPLE dies with the missing initials and they would be fairly common.

 

i agree with conder101

 

Thought of a fifth way, broken die (cud in the area below the bust).

 

Not a bad idea.

 

I just foun a 1999-D Jefferson with no FS. So this could be a pretty common occurance

 

I will sell it on ebay and let you know what it's worth. LOL. No but really, I will post it there and see if anyone bites.

 

we need ansers! i have a 2000 d no fs.

 

I know your title is "digging up old threads", but for god sakes, this thread is 6 years old. You'd get better responses if you started your own thread.

 

im not kidding though.
we need to find out.
i just looked at dates now.
found it here:https://www.google.com/#hl=en&sclie...96,d.cGE&fp=548e5224115f3d65&biw=1189&bih=580

 

I agree, Bruce 1947 hasn't posted since 2010.

Speaking of whom, where did he go?

 

9 years later, and we still don't have a definitive answer. Most of my sources seem to indicate it was an overpolished die. Values I've been seeing are in the $2-3 range for circulated grades. $4-5 and up for Uncirculated grades...

 

I sold one on Ebay for $4 a couple years ago. I found a few more in circulation but stopped pulling them because lack of interest.

 

I put one up on eBay just for kicks the other day, and while I got lots of views, no bids... so I ended the auction early as I didn't want someone snipping it for 5 cents at the last minute... A guy just offered me $2+ shipping for it... I'd grade it XF/AU... this is pretty much in line with what I've been able to find as far as pricing goes... In all of my years of searching, I've found 10 of them total.
