westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9810 Posts	Posted 08/01/2026 10:00 pm I think in spite of a very weak strike this one might just make a MS66. Very nice unmolested nickel.

smat45 Pillar of the Community United States 2385 Posts	Posted 08/02/2026 08:44 am And I thought I was just bad at grading Buffalo nickels...add Jefferson nickels to that too Nice 45-S smat Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18895 Posts	Posted 08/02/2026 10:02 am buy the coin not the slab...another example from PCGS. they may have graded this coin at that level but I would never pay this grade for this coin. the strike is just not there. they really love this kind of toning and most likely bumped it for that. I would never crack this one out of its holder. Report this Post to the Staff
