lehigh96 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Jon, The color on both coins is superb. The 44-S has a real shot at MS67, are you going to have it graded? I always love a toned war nickel. Nice pick ups! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCcoins Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Paul, Yes I'm going to have them graded. There are more nice coins in the set that I plan on grading as well. I just couldn't capture the toning well. I believe the '44-s should grade ms67, as the luster is booming and very minimal contact marks in hand.

IGWT Posted June 26, 2010 Author Share Posted June 26, 2010 I opened this thread tonight and suddenly realized that I made the OP four years ago (well, plus a couple months). My, how time flies. I always enjoy visiting to see what others have recently added to their collections, and and I learn a lot by viewing the coins (and comments) posted here. To mark the passage of time, I thought I'd repost pictures of the first coin in the thread followed by more recent -- though still pretty old now -- pictures of the same coin. The good news is that I still like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elbesaar Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 (edited) For whatever reason I was unable to download the images of my new 1894 Nickel in PCGS PR 64, yet this morning I had no trouble at all. Edited June 26, 2010 by Elbesaar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
