    A nice group and great pictures. I like the 79 cent the best

    Awesome! That first 38d looks like a luster bomb!

    Love the 38-D Jefferson's. Pair the best one up with a hammered, toned 38-D final year Buffalo. Is something going on with the obverse rim between 11:00 - 1:00 on the 2nd coin? Nice look to the 51-D Jefferson too! The first 74 Lincoln is funky cool.

    Thanks everyone. I did have fun. I had passed on many of these just three
    days prior when I was there on Tuesday but decided to go back in order
    to reevaluate my choices. I think I did okay. Three of the nickels cost me $55
    but I was out the door with all 10 of the coins for $95. I think that was an okay
    deal.

    cecropiamoth, yes, there seems to be something going on with the rim of the
    2nd 38-D between 11:30 and 1:00.

    The second 38-D has a lot of luster as well but it is a darker coin so showing
    luster and color in the same photo is difficult. This coin is really cool because
    the left half of the obverse is purple and the right half of the obverse is gold
    for the most part. I just couldn't get it photographed the way I wanted but it
    is still pretty cool.

    Yes, the first 38-D and 51-D are pretty flashy coins. The centers of the 41-D
    are a little mellowed.

    The first 1974 1c has a steel blue/aqua obverse besides the patch of red and is pretty
    darn cool. The coin is actually quite flashy on the obverse. I think all of the cents are pretty
    flashy and look a good bit better than the photos. These things were a challenge for
    me to photograph. Now that I have everything imaged, I would have definitely left
    the 1946-D at the shop....the obverse spots kill any positive attributes the coin has. image

    I think the first 38-D, 51-D and first 1974 are the real keepers from the group. The 76-S maybe?
