I was looking through four rolls of circulated 1953 nickels and I think I found two SF Far Leaf varieties, any opinions would help, thanks.

According to my copy of Charlton 2014 both versions point between the denticles, the pictures describe the ends of the I being flared for the NSF and not as flared for the SF version.

No apologies needed , I'm just looking for a confirmation on what I've found. Four rolls gave me three of the four types I believe. I know they are heavily circulated, but I also wonder what they are worth.

Both coins are SF/Far Leaf. Nice score. I would guess a value of $150.00 - $200.00 each.

Thanks for the info, these were among rolls that my father put away many years ago and have now been passed on to me. I will have to let him know what he had put aside, he will be quite pleased.
