it would be great if you could take individual shots of the coins and post them bigger if you can so we can see exactly what you have here. If you can't get the pictures the size to fit on the forum bigger you can use a site like photobucket to upload them and they will be bigger when you post them on the forum

Interesting 1902, I expected a lot more definition in the hair. Also some nice doubling in the date.
Cool group of coins!

Yeah, actually, the definition is there, it looks like it got washed out in the scan....need to work on that. I think the extreme shiny finish is washing out the details.

do not use flash. try a white hanky between coin and bright light.

The picture is definitely better than the scan. (but still needs work)
To be honest scans don't cut it.
Oh yeah, we're sick puppies.

I agree. I bought a scanner just so I can get the UP close details of a coin. I am trying to get Coins92 to send me payment infor for the lighthouse.....no luck yet though.

Great coins! Your 39 is a 38 reverse sadly. I have the same. In a perfect world, I'll get the 40 reverse someday.

Good news, I am 99% sure that your 1938 proof is one that is the Variety One Extra Serif. Compare the S in TRUST and you can see where it has a serif added at the base. Most other 1938 Proof nickels have a sort of diminishing tail to the S. I do believe the type 1938 Proof you pictured are much more scarce. You have some nice coins there, good for you!

gorgeous coins
the 1902 is sweet
and its always fun to see the details on a proof jefferson
most of those details are not quite there on business strikes
I search rolls and love seeing quality proofs to see how the coins should look
