A few high grade Jeffersons, how'd you grade?

1938-D This one is nice, clean, and tons of luster. I have a grade in mind for it, but i would love the input from others.

 

 

1950-D this one has nice color, and luster, but suffers from a few nicks on the obv. how would you think it would fare?

 

 

1940-D I'm certian its 6fs, but up on the fence between two grades.

1938-D: MS67, no FS (fantastic surfaces!)

 

1950-D: MS65, no FS (prominent nick on obverse under eye, various others -- don't like the few spots on the reverse, I'd say it might have a slight shot at MS66).

 

1940-D: MS66 6FS (lovely coin, some dullness/spots on the obv at 12 o'clock.)

As I'm scrolling down, I'm going 67, 65, 66. Then I read this. :laugh:

i would have to agree with those grades exactly.

I agree. The 50-D I believe does have a shot at 66 - Jefferson's are tough to grade IMHO. The marks on the cheek tend to be disregarded to some extent by the grader's as weakness of strike and a pre-existing condition, hence the reason I think it has a shot at 66. The 38-D is gorgeous and the 40-D has immaculate steps! Nice coins and even better photos!!
