  1. It does instantly put a cap on the amount of coins available for this slot. Weather or not this will create an uptick in the demand or value of the coins in these older holders is to be seen.
  2. I checked a few sets and this slot was empty on the ones I looked at. If you go to the coin explorer page for this particular coin there are only 2 coins currently in the registry.
  3. In recent weeks I have noticed that NGC has added a new slot in the complete Jefferson nickel registry set. I saw where the complete set went from 300 coins to 301 coins and it took me a few minutes to figure out what they added. The slot added is for a 1939 S (MS/business strike) with no reverse step variety attribution. There are already 2 slots for the 1939 S coins with both the Rev of 38 and Rev of 40 varieties. Coins with either reverse attribution will NOT fit into this slot. You have to find a coin that was graded before these attributes were assigned. NGC automatically assigns the reverse type for any new submission. Currently the NGC census shows 300 coins across all grades without a reverse variety shown on the label as simply 1939 S. I have to assume that a certain percentage of these 300 coins have been cracked out or resubmitted over the years to gain a reverse type designation so this figure may be decreased. Good luck and happy hunting to all my fellow Jefferson collectors.
  4. Another step closer with the AWQ project. The Eleanor Roosevelt rolls came yesterday.
  5. I finally found a 53 Philly that I liked to fill the slot in the set. Down to 4 coins to complete the 38-64 circ set.
  6. My first coin purchase in months and it is one I didn’t already have an example of. Now down to 5 coins to complete the 38-64 set. This is the easier to find of the 2 reverses.
  7. Hello Dale and welcome to the forum. Your sets usually start out as public sets and you have to make them private using the edit feature in the particular set you are working on. Go to the main page of your set and you will see an edit button next to a pencil. Hit EDIT SET and it will take you to the following screen. Once in there you will see the word PRIVATE with a check box next to it. Make sure this box is unchecked and your set will be public.
