Fender79 Valued Member United States 251 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 5:33 pm I have a hard time with image uploader so they probably aren't perfect pics. I'd give money to the site to be able to easily just upload pics directly from my phone Report this Post to the Staff

Nieuw Pillar of the Community United States 663 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 5:37 pm I need better pic to fully assign a grade, but from the images, this nickel looks like it has some merging Edited by Nieuw 10/03/2019 5:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 5:58 pm Remove coins from holders before taking photos whenever possible. Needs to grade at least MS64.Are you sure your coin is not a proof?http://www.numismedia.com/rarecoinp...proof=&plus= John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 6:13 pm Agree. Please try again, with larger, straight-on pics without flashback. Edited by Coinfrog 10/03/2019 6:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff
basebal21 Bedrock of the Community 13014 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 6:16 pm If it actually is FS than yes it is. Essentially any 53 P that is FS is worth getting graded Report this Post to the Staff
Fender79 Valued Member United States 251 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 6:20 pm I don't think it is a proof. If it was shouldn't it have a mint mark of S? I'm kinda new to all this. After dinner I will take it out of the card/plastic. I couldn't find a flaw at all and the steps are beautiful a distinct. Standby for better pics and thanks to everyone for any help Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 7:05 pm OP - The proof of this year had no mint mark, certainly not S. Report this Post to the Staff

There's probably a way to edit the size of the file on your phone but I haven't gotten around to figuring it out. Report this Post to the Staff
Fender79 Valued Member United States 251 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 7:45 pm Here are the steps. Best I can do w my phone camera. It pixelates if I zoom any more without more light which obscures due to glare Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 7:49 pm Sorry, still not close enough to verify FS. Field toning spot detracts. Report this Post to the Staff

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 8:22 pm Looks like FS but need better pics of full coin obverse and reverse to determine grade . Report this Post to the Staff
Gincoin43 Pillar of the Community United States 1543 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 9:09 pm Much better Report this Post to the Staff
Nieuw Pillar of the Community United States 663 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 9:15 pm Now, I think this is FS with the better images Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/03/2019 9:23 pm Looks FS with some minor issues on reverse. Now we need comparable close-ups on the obverse. Report this Post to the Staff
