buddy16cat Pillar of the Community United States 1536 Posts	Posted 07/28/2014 5:25 pm I just won this lot of V nickels on ebay. One of them is specified as 188?. I think this is the one. Can you tell the date? Perhaps I should take a look when I get them and see if a high resolution scan would show it. I enhanced the original as best as I could from the original bad pic.

buddy16cat Pillar of the Community United States 1536 Posts	Posted 07/28/2014 5:26 pm Hope it appears like a worn out 6 like it appears but I will have to see about that. Probably an 1888 or 1887. Edited by buddy16cat 07/28/2014 5:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff

buddy16cat Pillar of the Community United States 1536 Posts	Posted 07/29/2014 10:44 pm I may just have to wait and do a high resolution scan. I hope it is a 1886 but something tells me it is 1888 since it is in a better date lot. Report this Post to the Staff
