CanadianCollector Valued Member Canada 306 Posts	Posted 08/16/2012 2:45 pm I have this 1945 Victory nickel in my collection and I was wondering what the grade of it is. I have included 4 photos because with lower lighting, a lot of flaws that are on the plastic show up. The pictures with more lighting better show the real appearance of this coin's lustre (on the right side of both photos) but are too lit up in parts to grade from. Also, the green spot on the obverse after IND appears to be dirt in the holder and not a stain on the coin. Thanks in advance.

JeyRey2000 Pillar of the Community Canada 743 Posts	Posted 02/07/2013 12:44 pm Very nice! Is the value of MS65 for those even worth grading? THere was a high mintage so even in MS65 its like 80 bucks! Report this Post to the Staff
JeyRey2000 Pillar of the Community Canada 743 Posts	Posted 02/07/2013 12:48 pm Also noticed that your coin is really silver in color. I have a couple from 45 that have an almost blue color. Anyone know why? Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10463 Posts	Posted 02/07/2013 3:39 pm The incandescent lighting used in your photos makes this coin difficult to grade. It almost looks like a no-chrome, with the yellow coloured light (the fields suggest otherwise). It looks mint state, that is as far I will go with those photos...
