Lem E Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 On 10/18/2022 at 8:43 PM, Sandon said: I purchased this uncertified key date 1885 Liberty nickel at a Bowers & Merena auction in 1999, where it was graded XF40. It has been housed in a Whitman bookshelf Liberty nickel album stored in a safe deposit box since that time, and I only recently had a chance to photograph it. Very nice pieces. Thanks for posting them. What prompted you to dig them out after all of these years? Henri Charriere and Hoghead515 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henri Charriere Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 🐓 : Pick and choose. Q.A.: How so? 🐓: Provision 2 of the rules as promulgated by @Lem E is: "Made from a nickel alloy." Q.A.: So why do you suppose he allowed it? 🐓: Two reasons readily come to mind: 1. The novelty of a "nickel" featuring a prominent member's name on it, on one side... Q.A.: And 2? 🐓: The prominent nose of the Indian on the other. RonnieR131 and Lem E 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lem E Posted October 21, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) I posted the seller pics of this coin in the new acquisition thread a few days ago. I received it in the mail yesterday and I was very pleased. The tone on this coin is phenomenal. The colors are very rich and vibrant. Even these pics lighten the coin up more than it is in hand. Very deep. I really like this one. Can’t wait to get it to Joe and let him work his magic.updated pic below.

Got several in coin flips in various conditions. Mostly circulated. Id like to get some more. I really like the buffalo nickels. Id love to complete a set of them but it be a very hard set to try for. So I just buy random dates as I get the chance to.
