Popular Post J P M Posted January 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2022 (edited) Well the storm is coming and I picked up some rolls to look at. I also picked up these Special Coins for my Nickel sets. Now I know there not all FS like I have been trying to acquire. Sometimes if it is a deal you just have to get, what you can when you can. I am proud to say that I got my first MS 68 FS. That in itself is something I have to say is not a easy find in nickels without costing big bucks.

A 68FS Ya it is nice, kinda like what is now called Burnished. I need some more of those for the sets. And they were all easy on the pocket book. My wife is happy with the nickels as long as I keep getting good deals, I can stay out of the dog house. Fenntucky Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Bill347 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 It reminded me that I gave up a bunch of ASEs during the purge I had at least ten of the first years proofs including the vaunted 86. Oh well I won’t do that again hopefully. I just put together my own 1981s Type 2 collection in a capital holder. Fenntucky Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure you if that will get you the big money proof set price of $285. I think that is for the factory proof set type 2. but ya never know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 68FS I had to put this coin up the finish reminds me of a Morgan . I think it is odd that these are called SMS coins but that's the designation in the NGC Registry there are 14 of them total.

Mr.Bill347 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 JP what is that wavy thing on the right side of the obverse? Looks like a pie crust. R__Rash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is plastic slag left over the PCGS holder has a rough edge on the inside ring. I see it on some of the old style white NGC holders sometimes . The new ones with the three and four point holders are much better R__Rash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
