If they are indeed Full Step War Nickels, they command quite a premium. Nice Jeffersons!

I went back today and picked up teh 1943P Double Eye for $20. funny story, I asked if I could look through the breif case of nickels again so he got it out. I went through all the War Nickels, I found 2 more to buy, but did not find the double eye. I asked him about it and he said "Oh this one"? He had set is aside. I said yea you still good for $20 on that coin? He said yea is that what I told you? I said yes and he said Ok! I would grade it about a MS55 No steps.

I think you got a great deal on those gorgeous coins. I love unc War Nickels. I have a couple sets of them. They are really beautiful in uncirculated condition. And if any truly are full steps then you got a steal.

War Nickels never impress me unless they look like THOSE.

Very Nice!
I have a Capital Holder UNC with 2 nickels with a golden tone. Truly one of my favorite sets.
Thanks for the beautiful pictures. You are blessed.
