an hour after I launched her, she decided to die on me leaving me stranded.

i used to go fishing all of the time back in my old work days since we worked mostly nights and weekend.... So i bought a sweet little 19' fish and ski.  worked on her for months making sure everything worked like a champ...  took her out a few times and then she let me down...  started working so much i had to sell her because she was rotting to the ground     just like it... boats..............

Yes i agree if they say that it  has been cleaned; there should be a explanation as to where they see the cleaning.  I would also love to hear how they figure out that a coin has "improper color" or "Questionable color"  especially when you remove it from the OGP and put it in a flip.  Would love to hear how they determine this

yes it was and hope yours was wonderful as well!

VKurt at my buddy's lake house in Abalama on Lake Martin.

Yes mister VKurtB  congratulations!!  Oh lookie we have someone from LA here (Lower Alabama)  hahahaha 

usually you will find these at the lower end of the uncirculated scale.  which means in the 60 - 62 range.  they were bulk submitted for a cheaper slabbing fee and are distributed as "Brilliant Unc"  but if you think that it will be in the Gem classification you will only be disappointed.  if you go in with the thought that you will be getting a low end unc coin then you will be doing fine.

What you have are bullion coins.  at the end of the day still bullion. they will never be worth more that that and you will not profit from having them graded.  it will only be a waste of your time and money.  keep them in the OGP and enjoy them.

yep about $2

thats what you call i hammered the nickel slugs for a million times and now i am worn out and tired. it is cause by die deterioration nothing special

yep still worthless  

If you want  good album it is going to cost ya.

When you said BULLION you said it all.. that is what they are bullion.  not much better than spot when you try to dump them......  I like @JPM also have complete sets of ASE's un graded  MS are in a really nice Dansco and the proofs are still in OGP

the term "Full Steps"  is a strike designation.  Jefferson's are often weakly struck across the steps and and those that are sharply struck can get these designations if the steps leading up to the memorial are full and unbroken  this can eitehr be 5 or 6 full steps.  usually can be found on the earlier side of a dies production run and slowly fading away on the later production runs.

good adds!  looks like you are getting down in the low hundreds left

l, if NGC removes the coin from its existing holder, the

yes the submitter inherits all of the risks 

yes ....  you can either have them crack it out or you can do it...   you will have to tell them that you want it graded no matter what.  because sometimes they will be returned "details"  if there is an issue.

hey and welcome to the forum.  that would be a big no no to do it.  Sorry this is only worth 25 cents.  they made these by the millions you will only be wasting your tie with these modern issues to have them graded.

Awsome... mine hasn't gotten here yet   still waiting!!!!
