My Newest Prooflike

[physics-fan3.14]

And the quest continues! Just picked up this lovely little thing from Heritage. It doesn't appear in the census, so it is probably the only one of the type (and recently graded, as you can see). NGC called it MS-65PL, and CAC agreed.

 

I can't wait to have this one in my hands!!!!

Gee that set is really coming along nicely (thumbs u

[Bugmann1974]

Absolutely superb Jason!

[TomB]

It's really nice that you were able to snag an NC type for the design.

I was disappointed that I loss this bid, but glad you got it! Great pick up Jason.

 

[PCcoins]

Cool, would like to see better images when you get that puppy in hand!

[bsshog40]

Nice look Proof V there Jason!

I was disappointed that I loss this bid, but glad you got it! Great pick up Jason.

 

Ah, so it was you I was up against? Good game, well played, but since this is the only prooflike known for a one year type, I had to have it.

 

Do you collect prooflikes?

Pockets ran out of hope....so to speak, I really wanted this for my V nickel collection. I bailed out at the half way point. Not even close, shamefully my numis-knowledge laid an egg

If I ever see another Prooflike V nickel at a good price, I'll let you know.

Another excellent pickup Jason! From what I remember, don't you have another Liberty nickel PL (with cents I assume)? I think it's cool that you are trying to put together a full PL typeset.

[WoodenJefferson]

Having it gold plated?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[michael]

looks deeply prooflike

 

and with great eye appeal

 

what did you have to pay for it if i might ask??

 

 

never seen one of these prooflike

[physics-fan3.14]

Michael, I got it in the recent Heritage auction for $800. It was a bit more than I was expecting, but for a piece this unique I had to do it.

 

And yes Sy, I did recently purchase the with cents model 1902, NGC MS-64PL:

Very cool Jason. Man, that PL type set is coming along great!!

[fishfinder]

Cool pick ups Jason. Those PL nicks look great.

[Prethen]

That hair detail is amazing.

Finally got a chance to take pics, and yes, it does have a good cameo effect in hand:

1883 "no cents" has to be one of the most underrated type coins around. They are available, can easily be found attractive, and eminently affordable. It's one of those coins where "every collector should have one". I think yours is fantastic!

[kryptonitecomics]

I like it....would love to see it in hand (thumbs u

[Mirrored Morgan]

Really nice cameo.

[mrstock]

Great looking cameo there!
