My first and so far only graded V-Nickel, I hope yall like the coin as well as my images! :smile:


I will reveal the grade after 15 guesses or 24 hours, whichever comes first!

(I might do one of these once a week, not gonna lie. These are fun!)

Edit: if it makes things easier, here are the TV images:

    MS62, if this is any higher it is just luck. No offense, but I have an 63 PCGS/CAC with a much nicer surface, of course this one is just our host and not also CAC as far as you have mentioned.

    Hey @Goob ! It's not silver. :D

    1. Maybe 64.
  • MsMorrisineMsMorrisine Posts: 38,670 ✭✭✭✭✭

    half dimes are silver

    i looked at the tv in a new tab, so if my guess is wrong then i need to go back to school

    64.

    lots of 1883-V NC i see have die cracks. they can also come with pastel toning too. i like the warm toning yours has

    Put me down as a 63. Looks pretty nice too!

    I believe it would grade 64. Luster would enhance the grade. JMO

    64 or 63

    do i admit i'm wrong or insist it's under-graded?

    Second photo, the coin looks nicer. The first photo (the large photo) makes the coin look 62 , the second (in the slab) 63. Neither looks like they would CAC sticker. The photo in the slab shows its nicer luster but the activity on the upper and lower cheek as well as left obverse field holds it back.

    Its still a nice looking coin 🪙

    That's a nice looking Lib for a 63 !
