CoinsKelly Pillar of the Community United States 3453 Posts	Posted 03/07/2012 11:55 am I am a sucker for these. These are the auction pictures, that blotch on the reverse was fuzz and the reverse is blemish free. I am putting this at AU55, possibly 58. What do you think? This was an upgrade for my Dansco.

CoinsKelly Pillar of the Community United States 3453 Posts	Posted 03/07/2012 2:20 pm There is actually a slight rub in the hair, which is why I am thinking it is not MS. These are my favorites because of the die clashes - the 1865 3 cent nickel was the first coin I bought for myself at the age of 8. Report this Post to the Staff
westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9796 Posts	Posted 03/07/2012 2:36 pm AU-55/58 sounds about right, it is a weak strike, but if you can see any rub on the high points then it's not MS.

JimR Pillar of the Community United States 1490 Posts	Posted 03/07/2012 9:20 pm I agree with the previous grades and would add that these coins along with the Shield nickels are some of my favorites because of all the character they have i.e. die cracks, clashes ect. Report this Post to the Staff

That is precisely why I like these series and the Two Cent series, lots of varities, not dificult to find the odd stuff and a lot of fun just collecting and researching them.
