Popular Post J P M Posted May 19, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 19, 2022 I have been looking for a 1942 D in 65 FS or higher in my price range for a while and I finally got one cheap. The 1973 is very nice also a little toned but getting shadows no sunlight today to get good shots to show ya.

Congrats on the purchase my friend. Great buys. It is a large set of coins like quarters Hoghead . I try to pick up at least one or two a week. Sometimes I get lucky and get more but I think there are more Nickel Collectors than there used to be. The prices are going up all the time my $3 and $5 coins are a thing of the past they are all $10 and more it seems. I had to raise my spending threshold from 30% of retail to 40 and 50% . I am also trying to only go with MSFS coins and that will bump things up a bit. Some year nickels there are just no FS coins available without selling the farm with those I just try to find the nicest coins I can.

Lem E Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Looking good JP. It is a monster set to put together when you are doing a full run with proofs. I have been venturing into the full set myself and it is going to be quite the undertaking. Best of luck my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoL ya I am still working on the regular set but if I happen upon a proof at a sweet price I will grab it. Just doing the Jefferson early set 38 to 64 is a challenge forget the proofs and SMS are killers. Good hunting Lem. Lem E 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
