My adopted grandfather got me interested in coins. The 1913 was always his favorite. When I had the Hawaii 5-O coin, he drove over to Spokane from Seattle just to see it.

I know it's still a secret. For fun: I'll guess you grabbed the Brasher Doubloon or 1854-S NGC XF 45 $5.
For posterity... so far:
- 1794 PCGS SP66 S$1 CAC
- 1804 PCGS PF65 ex Dexter $1
- 1913 PCGS PF66 ex Eliasberg 5c CAC

Congratulations. As someone who has only scratched the surface of this hobby, and besides it being an ultra-rarity, I like the look of this coin.
How much does the overall look of the coin matter when it is so rare / finest known? If this had some spots or unattractive toning, but was still the finest graded ultra rare 1913 v-nickel, would that lessen it any?

I was kidding. I figured it was going to be the rarities.

I’m not sure I’d want to own a fugly ultra rarity. Eye appeal still matters, though you can’t be quite as picky.

The uniform surfaces and overall superb eye appeal put this example heads and shoulders above the others. Congratulations!

"to reclaim an exquisite collection of Liberty Nickels"
i recall legend has a 1913 V in the sold archives. it was one of the first $5m coin i researched, (at the time).
that article states that they owned this previously. or am i mixing something up?

With many expensive toys, one often says the two best days are the day you buy it and the day you sell it. I wonder if that is true for coins like this.

What a great looking coin!! Wow

I own quite a few 1913 Liberty Nickels. you did not mention that they need to be real.
For the 4th coin, the 1854-S crossed to PCGS quite a while ago if I recall.
I thought Bruce said he was the under bidder for the Doubloon. (or was it Oliver). He said it was someone "new" bought it.

lets make it a cooperative effort!considering how much acceptance digital albums and the like have these days, not a bad way to enjoy these unicorns, white whales, moose, etc.
i don't recall a thread about "your dream digital album." a full us type set of all the tvs for a dream set would be neat aka hansen's actual set. lol
a good start would be "The Vicarious Everyman Set." ?

Congratulations, and thank you for sharing with us your experiences.
