You need to continue on with just 1 thread. This is the 3rd thread on the same topic..... Post the pictures under your first thread from yesterday. It gets confusing.

Hi. I hope you don't mind a question that goes a little off topic from what you were discussing. I'm still new to the forum and am learning the terminology. What is a "far" nickel? I looked in the glossary but I didn't see it.
Thanks

The grade looks around VG-10. Mint state would have to be MS-60 or higher.

1926 nickel with far 6. CoinsAndCanada lists it at $180.00 for VG-8, and $230.00 for F-12, for the far 6 one.

Bingo Mike..!!... Do you have any "perfect looking coins" in your new collection..?

That 26 is actually "FAR" from mint state(MS)....but still a kind of tough coin to find in any grade..

Charlton Standard Canadian Coin Catalogues explain all that you would want to know. Sometimes available on ebay for peanuts..

"I paid 190.00 for about 400 coins
Over 200 of them old silver Canadian"

Can you let me know where to go to make a similar purchase....?

A 1926 belonging to a friend, I think it is a near 6, he thinks it is far, please settle this for us, also please grade it as well.

west-canuk, the coin you are showing is a 'near' 6, the 'far 6' has a slight rotation that twists to the left and is quite a bit away from the leaf as shown in matthewvincent's pictures.

Looks F-12 to me.
