I know these have no real value I like the strike and the toning. Yes all 1959 have a strong strike but take a look. Natural or AT
Thanks for looking share any 1959 or other Jefferson you have.
Best place to buy !

Black beauties (improperly annealed)? Can't tell for sure based on the photos. Very common on these late 50's nickels.
I am sure that they are all NT. None seem to have weird AT colors.

Sweet, congratulations !!!
I would say natural... and not uncommon for the period.... I do not know the reason for it. A good year (I joined the Navy in '59).... any FS in the roll?? Cheers, RickO
Most definitely a nice roll! They all look real clean and (not surprisingly) well struck.
The only thing wrong with 1959 is the Chicago White Sox lost the World Series.

I would say all are NT'd and nice looking Jefferson nickels!
the dark ones some people call black beauties - grade s don't look higher than 64

I like them and I can see why you like em too. Yes I would be happy with these
That's a very nice roll! it is exactly the sort of roll that might generate a Gem or four. ...or even eight.
You can look through a lot of '59 (P) nickel rolls without finding a nicer one.
Nice!

Black beauties are like black pearls, they'll have your attention. Black beauties must be highly lustrous or proof-like to earn the label/term. High grade, even better but not necessary. A MS63 or 64 will still have great eye appeal. Oh, and with a nice deep detailed strike. To find such a coin that has all the above plus 5 steps....did I mention how rare such a coin can be? Here's a 1957, have a 1959 but not photographed' I think. Many of you have probably seen this coin already.

The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!
