Popular Post Hoghead515 Posted December 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 17, 2021 Another Christmas present from my loving family. They been really good to me this Christmas. The old lady has a better eye for coins than I do. In hand I think this one is very beautiful. It has great lustre. This is one of the finest MS66 quarters I own. Ive got a couple MS67 quarters that dont look near as nice. They let me have it early because we was gonna have our Christmas celebration tomorrow due to certain reasons and I have to work tomorrow. I told them Im very happy and proud to add this one to my set. Alex in PA., Coinbuf, The Neophyte Numismatist and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you...I've seen some MS 67 silver Washingtons that do not look anywhere near as nice as your 1950-D. I had a good Solstice, myself. My fiancée got me an MS 66 1986 Series Canadian $5.

I've cherry picked a few 1943/2 P Jeffersons over the years, but it's something to see one in MS 65 5FS. My cherry picks were horrendous looking by comparison.

Popular Post Lem E Posted December 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 24, 2021 Thanks everyone. I appreciate that a lot. Those are just the seller pics, but I do have the coin in hand. Has some pretty good luster to it. It’s the only nickel I have with a bean. You don’t see very many MS nickels with a bean. Usually only proofs have them. It will be going to Joe after the holidays are over along with a few others. Thanks again everyone and Happy Holidays.

Henri Charriere Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 (edited) @EdG_Ohio You are too kind. Yes, I have been collecting coins long enough to get Buffalo (actually, Bison) coins in change. My wife is 100% disabled, but neither her family or doctor, psychiatrist, etc. could tell me why, psychologically. I have notebooks filled with her unique observations. Her family is deeply religious; her father was a pastor (deceased) as is now her mother. I included her comment about your coin, which I love, because I doubt you will ever hear that from anyone else! I appreciate the portrait of the native American. Edit: Many thanks for the link which opened up a whole new world for me! Edited December 27, 2021 by Quintus Arrius To express gratitude for link.
