I agree it looks nice, although I don't collect these.

I love that matte finish! It does look great to me.

Beautiful Jeff photo Russ. I'm not crazy about the design but your pic and that coin's condition makes it look like a work of art.

I love the matte finish... and fantastic shot, too!

I generally don't collect them after '64, but do like the '65-67 SMS coins
and the '94 & '97 Matte finish nickels. I assume this is one of the latter.

I don't yet own a slabbed '97. When you say perfect, do you mean
figuratively perfect or literally perfect - an MS70 coin?

<< <i>an MS70 coin? >>

That is one purdy Jeff. Great detailed pic.

i never noticed before but is that the original design with jeff`s eye brow lowered
as if in anger or is concentrating?

Are those veins sticking out on his forehead?????????????????????????

Are those veins sticking out on his forehead

That, the hair detail and the dimple sculpture of his grin are what first struck me about the pic

Cam40 · February 2, 2005 7:49AM

kind of a sinsiter mona lisa grin with the lowered brow thing going on there.

Russ · February 2, 2005 7:54AM

It's what a fully struck Jefferson looks like.

Russ sure posts a lot of Jeffs any more ... he has become a closet Jeff fan. The next thing you know, Jeffs will be more than a profitable pursuit for his JFK ventures ...
