My Personal Best Eye Candy from my Jefferson Nickel collection

davids5104davids5104 Posts: 805 ✭✭✭✭

I am a relatively new collector....3yrs or so..... Here are a few of my favorite "Toned" items. Since I started another discussion about artificial toning... what do you all think about the 1948D?

    I have one almost complete dansco of beautifully toned jeffersons. Each has been acquired for 80 dollars or less. The 1946 and 1948 above were cracked out... Since beautiful coins is what I enjoy I had to start a second dansco and have a few jeff's with no home.

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    This is a great coin. My 38's are pretty good, but I believe this is splendid

    1947-P & D; 1948-D; 1949-P & S; 1950-D & S; and 1952-S.
    Any help locating any of these OBW rolls would be gratefully appreciated!

    Of the colors Red, Magenta, Blue, Cyan, Green and Yellow, some say green is the least seen. But I rarely see a heavy Blue. But there are also Orange and Gold and Silver or light grey, dark green or blue, all derived from the basic three, Red, Blue and Yellow. And Red, Blue and Green can get you white.

    Anyone who has been around coins long enough knows how beautifully nickel tones.




    Sold some proof sets recently ( Estate sets, in Capital holders ) on Ebay. A couple of the nickels looked yummy.

    Nothing close to yours, but.... in the spirit of things.

    Practice makes perfect & nobody is perfect. So, practice being nobody.

    Very gorgeous coins. My extent of collecting nickels has been errors, specifically delaminations on V nickels, buffalos and pre-war and war nickels. There's something perfect about imperfection, to me.

    Those are stunning pieces. I envy your eye. The only one I'd have passed on would be the 46, but that might be why you're a better nickel collector than I.

    You have great taste and I love the colors your showing us here. Looks to me like your doing just fine with your selections.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    You gotta love the old cardboard holder /album toned Jeff's.
    Your 1951-S is my favourite of the bunch.
    1948 and 1949 are dates I tend to see with regularly.
    I wonder why?
