If you can't find it you could buy it @mrak

On ebay for 2 dollars.

I was having trouble with the 1939-p, got it in change on Monday after only three years.

Yup, that would be easy but then it wouldn't be a full set from circ. in the meantime I can keep the silvers, buffs, and upgrade the coins as I find them. Matter of time till it shows up. 5 50ds found so we'll get there.

That's actually curious you'd have trouble with the 39p .....find them all time. Lately it's been a couple per box....disappointing when I see no mint mark.

I have been saving all my nickels. I put the ones from 1960 and before into my collection. The others I roll up and just save them.

funny no one has mentioned the 94/97 matte proof jeffs. surely a mintage of 167703/25000 would make them a key.I think its because dansco has forgotten them

The 50-Ds are practically impossible to "find in the wild" nowadays as most of them were hoarded.

Unless you come across them this way...

Really just the 39S and 50D are the only ones you'd want to worry about.

The 39D is the Key to this series. It is especially hard to find in the MS+ grades. The 50D was much hoarded and is pretty easy to find in MS.

We're all in agreement that this is an altered date '59-D are we not?

I would add any 1965-68 Jeffersons with steps (Better condition) on the reverse.

Considering who posted it, one should have known to look very closely.

I agree with DavidZ;

Quote:
DavidZerbato ...I consider the 1939 DDR (doubled "Monticello") a key variety for the series


IMO, there are two major types of Jefferson's; Silver War type and the original production 1938-2003 type. I am not including the post 2004 types...yet.

I have the 1939 Doubled Monticello (4004) and the 1943/2-P DDO (38499) for my two Jefferson types.

Jeez, it's getting harder and harder to fool you guys.

Good work! :-)

Picked this one up at the GSNA show. Its owner (who was quite aware that it was an altered coin and wrote so in *BIG LETTERS* across the flip) was very happy to find a buyer. :-)

I found one of those in a roll last fall. It was obvious even without magnification which is probably why I found it in circulation.

Oh boy, my poor " Two Cents". 1938 and 39 with mint marks lead the way.

Sad to say, the silver nickels do not make the list. Well, maybe the 1943-D, is and was tough.

50-d? Too many saved in MS. But an AU would be worth looking at.
49 and 48 with mint marks.
1951 too. 55 was a bad year as well as 58.

And sad to say, the Jefferson commems did not create a great interest in this series.

That gives the Jefferson Collectors a free reign to assemble nice sets.
I wish you all well.

Since the first of April, I've found 1949-S and 1950-P nickels in circulation. Now for that pesky '50-D.
