Libertad Pillar of the Community Canada 3692 Posts	Posted 04/06/2014 11:38 pm I can't ever judge the grade of 1940s-1950s nickels without seeing the edges... But this looks circulated in my eyes - look at the burnish marks on the rims from being on table tops, look at the man's face and all the nicks (not bag marks) on the high points of his cheek. The beaver looks near-perfect, though. Maybe it's the lighting. So how are the edges looking? Report this Post to the Staff
M_d_in_guy Pillar of the Community Canada 1049 Posts	Posted 04/08/2014 11:53 pm The edges look really good, no signs of rounding off, a few small nicks and some nice toning, and yes the beaver is AU lol. Nice mint luster on the whole coin as well. Thanks for the reply Libertad. Cheers. Report this Post to the Staff
