If you haven't noticed, I'm single and miserable and I've got four albums of bitching about it that I would offer as proof.

    It looks like this would need to score a 70 to be worth a PCGS slab.

    Opinion?

    Looks like a nice proof nickel and would look nice in an album or 2x2 collection but probably not worth sending in

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    How can that be a 70?

    Is that just dirt on the holder or are those nicks on the coin?

    I'm fairly certain that's dirt on the holder. I have no idea if it's a 70 or not, but I think the issue would be the strike, rather than any nicks. The bison's horn looks very well-struck, as does Jefferson's hair.
