Hey there canadiancoinaholic, those are really nice looking nickels. I can't tell from the pictures what they are made of chrome/no chrome, but I would think the grading could be done in the other grading forum. Welcome to CCF.  On the 1945 - I see a Cud on the inside of the C in CENTS on the reverse (common I have one with a Cud in the same spot), the die crack is on the obverse near the I in IMP, some extra metal on the rim. They are both nice coins in my opinion. MS. T1Steel - that is an expensive dollar, pulling the trigger on that one was good for your collection, nice in hand. Love the enamel dollars.

This is my 1¢ purchase! I sold a 2006 magnetic no-p for $25. I bought this 1997 specimen set and 70 Deutschmarks for $25. The exchange on the German money is about $45. Winner!

Are deutchmarks still legal tender. I thought that Germany was all Euros.

Is the finish on the polar bear frosted or shiny? Just wondering.

The fields are a "satin" finish and the raised parts are polished.

SIFU: If you ever think of going back to the sunova centre... send me an e-mail... my buddy sent me a text about the show but I never got around to it this week... too much play time with the kids which is never a bad thing.
I'd really like to check it out sometime... I like the 5c piece you picked up... very nice!
