I do love to see the die clash coming off of the rear of his head.

very very common on George VI nickels. DBM is correct way over priced and these come nicer!

Not overpriced at all and not common in high grades. I guess you might try looking up the Pop reports in both ICCS and PCGS. In VG-F, VF yes, but it ends there....

Are you the seller of this coin?

"Am I the seller ?"...NO. I will correct the previous Pop report comments though. The 1947 dot, the 1938 in MS-65 and the 1947 (plain) are the Keys to this series. I've watched the 1947 for the last 7 years and few if any in any mint state show up.
Just a guy that likes to see the right info come out...

Yes CoinsandCanada have been informed and refuse to update on many different prices-the same as Trends (CCN). Believe what you want. In 2007 before the "Crash" a 1947 in '65 was asking $1400.00. After that for the next 7 years there have only been about 7/8 auctioned in any grade. The last 2 from Colonial Acres in '64 went for $105 an $107 respectively. Two "torex's ago a 1947 in '65 started at $900.00. As I sad believe what you want. This one's a sleeper..!

I'm soooo.. very confused... unlike you I don't know my history of this particular coin as well as you...
But if you are NOT the seller... and you recognize that this coin in it's condition is a sleeper...
#1) Why are you not buying up all these coins now
#2) Why are you telling everyone about it...?
I think is a very nice coin... but there seems to be a VERY big jump from 64 to 65 in this coin...
Ahh I'm just too inexperienced... but there's more than a few things I'm just NOT understanding...
I will continue to read this thread.. and watch the auction..

When a coin might sell for $100 and/or $1400,..well you'd better have a good look and it better be done "in hand".
An old ICCS 64 and a new ICCS 64 are 2 different fish...
You can't trust any of the #'s anymore........and photography can definitely enhance a coin. It's always .."buyer beware" ..when purchasing solely from on-line pics..

Why am I not buying up all these coins...?
You can't buy them all-I've had this coin years ago and now collect Newfoundland that's why. It doesn't mean I don't recognize a good deal when I see one. Since I may see a lot of great coins and there are several out there, I buy what I can and frankly, If this one's still around in a few weeks I might just be "forced" to buy it....

Full trends in 64 is $ 80 Canadian and a realistic wholesale bid is 45 bucks hardly what you call rare ! 2014 ICCS pop report is 92 coins in MS 64 Of which we have two in inventory and 35 pieces in MS 65 with none higher. At a major New York auction in the 1980's (Bowers and Merena "Kissel and Victoria " sale there were hundreds of Mint state 1947 Dot five cents sold !! ) Most of these have probably not been graded by ICCS. I would suspect that there are more 1947 BU five cents out there that WOULD grade 64 or better, but most will not submit a coin that is usually under a hundred bucks. BTW fill your boots on the ebay lot !! |

No , my family is Newfy, and lost I translation is the simple fact that what I am saying to Jerry go ahead buy it ! "Fill yer boots" simply means go ahead and do something that you may or may not regret! Have a good one AG you are hardly a "simple minded individual" Take Care Jack
