Same here, but it wouldn’t surprise me if they changed it again or reverted back to the states/atb obverse. I like the classic.

I may have to take a look at that line above PLURIBUS though and see what that is. (Not sure why I quoted myself.) These 12 hr shifts are getting to me.

I was assuming he meant die deterioration.

Hope it’s the real deal for ya Rigs! Good luck!

I wonder why the mint isn’t putting out rolls of these?

Another nice one HH. Nice and clean, well deserving of the bean.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. “Guess” is the key word here.

I haven’t really taken a good look at it yet. I’ll have to check when I get a chance, but from what I hear they are putting these dies through the ringer so it wouldn’t surprise me one bit.

I would try places like APMEX, JMBULLION, SDBULLION.

Nice color and green bean to boot. Nice 👍

That 32D must have been a doozie. I think we all know who bought it. Can’t wait to see that one in your registry set @Hoghead515 !

Wow that is a gorgeous 42D! Hard to imagine it being slabbed as a 66. Hammered strike and looks to have great luster. Im glad you found that one so I had the opportunity to get the one I have from you. Glad to get both coins actually. 2 of the best coins in my collection. You are one of the only other people who really knows what that Appalachian coin looks like in hand. The luster on it is ridiculous! For anyone reading this interested in Jefferson Nickels, you should definitely go check out the Atlantic City set of lehigh96. The best set in the registry in my opinion, and the inspiration behind me starting my own Jefferson collection. To me, THIS guy is the nickel MAN! I have spent hours looking at that set and reading about those coins. I appreciate all the information you have given us my friend. Thank you.

Here are a couple of mine. These look familiar @lehigh96 ?

I think the multi quarter sets will be coming back next year. I have looked for Dansco albums but they seem to always be sold out everywhere I look, or if I do find one it is some oddball coin I don't collect.

That would be hard to do for sure. I would have to put a little sticker in the album saying “see proof set for S coin”. It’s hard enough to find the Dansco album itself anymore.

PF65 CA

Not bad condition for the age. It took me 17 years to find a 2004 Iowa P coin to complete my states album.

I have found 4 Tuskegee coins so far. All Denver. Everything new in Illinois (my area anyway) is from the Denver Mint.

Gas station.

Hello Rick, and welcome to the forum. I don’t see any particular errors on this coin. It just looks very worn and circulated. It’s always hard to determine how PMD or post mint damage occurs to coins and this one has had 48 years of opportunity. The circular line on the obverse could be from a coin rolling machine or maybe another coin was pressed against it? The reverse looks to have taken some hits and scrapes. We will really never know what damaged the coin, but the fact is that there is really nothing special about this one in my opinion. There is always the possibility that someone else may see something that I don’t.

Found my first one today.

Thanks for the info Paul. Very interesting stuff. I did read on the NGC website where the old FS designations meant 6 full steps. Would love to read the new 38 & 40 thread. Some very beautiful Jeffs you posted. Thanks again.

I have no doubt @Conder101 would know. Maybe we will get lucky and he will chime in on this. Thanks Rick.

Here is the reverse pic of that coin. It is not a very good pic to see steps but they look a little rough for a 6 step coin. (This pic doesn’t show on here as well as it does on the listing)

I would check it but this is not my coin. It is a listing pic from ebay. I had seen a few of these and wasn’t sure. Thanks for the info.
