This is my take on the coin! I like the strike and toning on this one plus it has close to 6 steps but then there's the mark on the cheek and another on the steps!Picked it up on a $9 bid.

Here another coin that Solid and I battled over a couple of weeks ago. This one is a lot more brilliant with light pastel colors than the pic suggests. There's an imperfection on the cheek that's not easily seen. And there's a thin nick in the middle there on the first 3 steps.

The last pic is of the same coin but shows the light imperfection rather boldly but it's really not that bad. The big nick is by the eye.

I think you did well..........all three are real nice coins, and iut sounds like at least some of the prices were cheap

Both coins are quite nice but I really like the characteristic phlegmy toning that the WWII nickels get.

Those look great Leo. I especially like the '46-D. I don't know what the difference is, but many 1946-Ds come with that pinkish wild toning! (Must have been something in the metal mixture.) When the coin has good luster, it's a great look (the non-lustrous pieces look bland). But it looks like your coin has all the luster and a great look.

 

I also like the '43. Wartime nickels are simply scrumptious to me. They can develop the wildest toning, although I doubt I'd ever call them "Phlegmy." (I hate it when I cough on my coins! )
