The Jefferson nickel is one of my favorite coins to collect. Just recently bought this exact same style of Capital Plastics holder with all the years/mints of the silver war nickel. All but one have step detail.

Thanks for a video on Wartime Nickels, that was a good video. Its nice to see someone give their time on coins that arent just that big or really consider a collector item in this hobby. Always a Fan of your show Ben.

I personally don't collect them, but love the info and story. That is a cool holder as well. Thanks!

Before watching the video: I’ve noticed that San Francisco has the least amount of full step Jefferson’s, followed by Philadelphia, and Denver by far has the best struck steps. Second, I cherrypicked a 1943/2 off eBay that graded MS65 FS and I sold it for 700 dollars recently at auction 😯

Hello, I would like to ask you if you have any info on a coin I have? The coin in question is a 1944 S Jefferson nickel with the mint mark is next to Monticello, not above like the coins you show in your video.I would also like to mention the coin is a non platted plainchant and weighs in at 4.4 not 5.0.Could you give me any info on what I should do? I haven’t been able to get any myself, no info on this particular coin?

Love that collection that Capitol Holder really brings it altogether! Is it forsale by chance?

[rogermueller]

i have a 50 D that's beautiful but i'm afraid to send it in.
