Right spirit and nice coin. Hopefully the children will appreciate it enough to expand it and pass it along to the grandchildren...once they know not to spend it.  |

very nice find!
be careful of your staples though; some of those look pretty snaggle toothed and might scratch the coin in front of or behind it in a stack. you could flatten them with a pair pliers. might save some tears down the road

Thats a fantastic War Nickel! I've found around half a dozen through rolls and loose change and they always looked black, worn, and putrid... Quote:

Its only happened once in the hundreds of coins I've stapled into coin flips, but I accidentally gouged the edge of a worn 1893 Columbus exposition half dollar with a staple after getting the stapler a wee bit too close. I'm glad that one wasn't worth much to begin with because I cringed real hard alone at the fact that I damaged one of the few uncleaned 1893 halves I could finally get my hands on. Lesson from me: keep the staples FAR from the coins edges! It's better to just risk letting your favorite coins have some extra wiggle room  |

Very nice find. I have found a silver War Nickel but it wasn't even close to the grade yours is, WOW!  |

Nice find, I see you have a physically challenged stapler like I use to own.

Nice coin.
Re staples - why use them at all ? I just arrange to have the edge with the fold on top when I place them into an album.
Anyone else do the same ?

Incredible find especially in that condition-congrats! The stapler! Why you have to bring that up? Just had another fight with mine and I'm on my 3rd one now! Wait... Might be my 4th?  Edited by Slamnbass
