Jefferson Jumble
A "reverse"-able debate
Recently I have been diligently plodding away at developing a respectable "Jefferson Nickel" collection.
Imagine my surprise when I recently jumped from 51% complete, down to 47% complete! (the collection is from 1938-1964, so I didn't think new dates would be added)
Well, new dates were NOT added, but new Varieties were. We now have 6 new slots for 1939 - which is indeed more accurate.
My only real dissapointment was that they no longer counted the "plain old" 1939, 1939-D, or 1939-S, they now needed a REVERSE clarification, my coins for these slots were instantly no longer qualified for the set! They should have been able to allow the old coins to remain until the new varieties could be added or something.
It seemed to me a good ploy to get a $10 "attribute" fee for each coin re-identified, not to mention the shppng/ins etc. ( I am sure the NGC graders just LOVED the added workload as well, so I am assuming it was not a business
Why don't they just have it like the 1939 Doubled Monticello - which just fits in the 1939 slot, but with clarification when you bring up coin details. OR create slots for ALL varieties.
O.K. done with the whining...., a slight challenge only adds to the excitement of collecting right!!
Thanks for listening....back to eBay...Off to find some reverses !!
