brg5658 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 From a member ATS. I have wanted one of these for a very long time.

Hi Paul, The images are too small to read the labels...what exactly are these? They are cool whatever they are! -Brandon They were privately minted by the FSNC (Full Step Nickel Club) with Felix Schlag's original award winning design. They forced him to make drastic changes to his design before minting, especially the reverse. There were 1,938 sets minted and encapsulated by SEGS and this is set #820.

lehigh96 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Speaking of Lehigh96, I just received this beast from him. NGC MS67* It breaks my heart to have to sell coins like this Lincoln, but honestly, that coin fits much better in your collection than mine and I am thrilled that you have it now. Here is my photo using diffused lighting in contrast to Bob's magnificent photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elbesaar Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Thanks, Bobby. It's almost a perfect match for the 1889 Off Center Nickel I bought a few months ago. Now both Grandparents ( my Father's side ) are both remembered as being off center !! Seriously, I am always looking for nice / unusual 1889 & 1891 coins.

leeg Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Very Nice coins all since my last. (thumbs u For my Type Set: Seller's image and description: "As business strike Three Cent Nickels go, this one is quite colorfully, in fact, rather wildly toned. The hues are more vivid than seen in the image, and this is easily one of the prettiest business strikes I have seen of any date and grade."

physics-fan3.14 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 LeeG is that one from Mark Felds site? It never made it to his site - Mark sent out an email this afternoon. Usually, the best stuff is gone within an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeg Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 LeeG is that one from Mark Felds site? Snagged it from Mark's New Purchases email. Historically, Marks is always the first new purchases email I receive of about five that I submit to. A significant advantage for him in my mind! Thanks for the kind words all on this purchase. (thumbs u Here are NGC 's comments on this year of 3CN from Coin Explorer: Business strike three cent nickels appear to be one of the more undervalued areas in the coin market today. They are very scarce in an absolute sense, especially in comparison to their proof counterparts, and are also very challenging to locate in better-than-Gem grades. This one is graded NGC 65/CAC for what that is worth. A POP 51/13/4 example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brg5658 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 This one came today. I don't know too much about it, but it struck me as pretty cool, and it has a horse on it! I'll have to do a little research for this one. The surfaces are very prooflike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've learned over the year's that a quick decision must be made when Mark's email comes out. I've lost my share too. A nice "V" there.
