What do you think this 1913 type once 5C would grade?

    Nice pics! Not big on buff grading but I see a very weakly struck obverse and a somewhat
    weakly struck reverse. I don't see the wear but perhaps it's just that I don't know the grading
    of these very well. I'll go 63.

    Thanks for the comment on the photos, they are something I am constantly looking for ways to improve on.

    The real reason I posted this coin is, I have not spent much time photographing Nickels or coins in Capital Plastic and this one is both.

    I could not hazard a guess from these images. Grading from photographs is a fools errand, albeit one we play with often enough, but this one is one instance where I won't. I can see some sort of greenish spot on the reverse.

    Best,

    Sorry to cut a few coins off but that is a far out as my macro/copy-stand can go.

    Hi,

    I think it is a lighting problem. The quality and quantity of luster is not showing to me. Would anyone buy from these images?

    Best,
    Eric

    I love the color on that Buff, but I think it's seen some action. AU53

    Shamika knows Buffs but I would say AU55 with really nice toning. That Walker may have some potential also.
