GreyfoxCoins-migration Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) Hello everyone: My latest acquisitions courtesy of fellow forum member Lehigh96. I have a very laser-focused collecting passion - 1938 to 1942 clad Jefferson nickels. I collect all grades, but my focus is on exceptional eye appeal. I also collect other dates with great eye appeal as well, but I mainly hunt '38-'42.

yonico Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 1941-D 5c NGC MS67 Very nice vibrant colors that don't fully show in my pics. this must be one of the most lustrous nickels I've ever seen. Very clean, too - couldn't find any marks or hits anywhere on the coin besides 2 small ones on the steps. Definitely better than most MS67's I've seen. I couldn't capture the luster in pics, but it shows better in . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpcienkus Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Beautiful additions Jom! The capped bust series are growing on me. I've bought a few books on them and plan to read them and acquire some pieces later this year. Your NEWPS only provide additional motivation to accelerate the learning curve.

jpcienkus Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Couple NEWPS: 1896 MS66: Much better in-hand. No breaks in the fields. Very nice luster and clean devices. Thought this next one was a beauty for a MS62. Already own a 64, but really like this one as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coindude Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Joe you got a steal on that CC I would have guessed at least 63. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdrob Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Yes that picture makes it look like many of your very clean cheek and field purchases. Nice coin indeed. I can't say that I love the same coin on the right as much though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't say that I love the same coin on the right as much though. That's a great example of how lighting can affect the look and grade of a coin. jom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpcienkus Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Bill, Where's did you find the picture on the right? I've got the coin in hand and it is frosty and resembles the Heritage picture much more closely than the one on the right. The fields do show some chatter, but you need to tilt the coin at an angle to really see them; otherwise, they're not very distracting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdrob Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Right Here at the Cert Verification Image. I doubt NGC spends much time trying to take good pictures, however there have been times when buying $10 Gold Indians that I used the NGC picture and the sellers picture and came to middle ground opinion and then bought it. They probably even have multiple people (different levels of talent) taking pictures at NGC too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpcienkus Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Joe you got a steal on that CC I would have guessed at least 63. Thanks. I felt the same way. I was very happy to get it and for a nice price as well. Usually, 62's are very baggy. It doesn't have 64 luster, but it's still decent. The field breaks and shallow contact marks aren't that noticeable until you tilt the coin on an angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdrob Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I think that even the bad NGC picture clearly shows 63. I think it is a nice coin. Whenever I see a coin graded that low and that clean in the fields and device I do a lookup on the cert to see if there is another picture. In that first picture I was thinking 64 easy.
