1940 Proof Jefferson Opinions

What do you think, worth submission? Guesses on grade?

Spots would probably limit grade to PF64. Worth around $75- graded.

Would have been a nice proof year for a Jefferson...but those spots detract from eye appeal (probably not that bad in hand) PR-65 easy.

note: I hope the edge is not corroded

You can probably get get a PR66 for about $75. So even if the coin graded better than 64 (which it looks like it would), it's still not worth submitting.

PF63 = PF64... spots limit the grade... send it to NCS for conservation... then depending on what they say, make a decision on submitting the coin or forgetting about it. Either way, it's going to be an expensive decision... and you'll want to get rid of it immediately since the spots will probably come back.

P.S. You'll definitely needd to make a PF67 coin for it to be worth the hassle... and I highly doubt that coin will end up there...

Thanks for all the opinions. Spots arent that bad in hand, but they sure show up under magnification dont they. Toning does a good job hiding them otherwise. I think it will stay in the album with all its proof friends!

Nice coin though. The 1940 proof is tough. It was one of the last ones I got to complete my 38-64 set.

Nice coin I think it will go PR-64/5 does that rim ding at 8 o'clock down to the fild I can just see it in the pic. Nice.
