1939-D Jefferson Nickel - Please Grade.

So type 2 is reverse of 1940?

Well thanks everybody for the possible 65 grade. I offered the guy $40, Free S&H, and he took it. Looks like it might be a slightly good deal!

That's a winner Mark! A beautiful coin for sure. !

MS-64 for the purist in me . Nice upgrade .

I have a MS full Jefferson collection myself, and agree that is a beauty.. real nice coin!
