Second one of these this week! Cherry picked myself by going back through my old nickel jar!

    Always fun to cherrypick your own coins! Nice finds. 👍🏻

    Amazing find! Can't beat finding a cherry picker variety, a classic one at that, for face value.
    Congrats

    Is it really worth selling after expenses ?
    What would someone pay for it ungraded/unattributed ?

    Id grade this one Fine (the other I found this week would be VF). PCGS guide lists it at $54-$60 at the 12/15 grade range. I would think that most people would be willing to buy a coin in this grade raw.

    I do not think most people would be willing to pay PCGS retail for a coin that is not in the PCGS holder. In the holder it would sell for a percentage of the retail price. Gold does best, then silver, then copper, and then nickel.
    After grading and EBAY it is a loss; raw, perhaps $3 or $4.

    That almost makes me want to return to cash and coins instead of almost exclusively plastic. Almost.

    Second one of these this week!<

    Imagine that there are thousands of these just sitting around in jars, coin folders, in drawers just waiting to be discovered all across the USA! Sell man! SELL! lol
