Sorry about iPhone pics. Just picked up a nice collection and up early checking it out.
Better pics of the highlights when I get to store.

    I like the Shield Nickel, but if the 1883 is a No Cents, that's tough one because it's a one year type and harder than you think as a Proof.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    The shield, unless, as BillJones pointed out, the 1883 is a no cents.... Cheers, RickO

    Don't let them rub up against each other as that may cause hairlines that sometimes deminish the price/value as many collectors prefer the fields to be more mirror like and less scratches and the such, whatnot.

    Shield. Although, the others are beautiful as well. You make your own choice. ;)<3

    The collector who assembled that was brave to put cam proofs in a 7070!

    I'd have to see the shield and no cents in hand to decide which one I'd keep

    I'd rather have the Shield, but that 1891 looks awesome!

  • cameonut2011cameonut2011 Posts: 10,181 ✭✭✭✭✭

    1936 Buffalo for me

    For sure - let's hope there are no fingerprints on those beauties!
