Shield Nickel Woes... please help

[No_Ragrets]

I just recently posted it in the cointalk forum for their perusal. The members of both CONECA and cointalk are a blessing to have, as I would otherwise...

[No_Ragrets]

Just to resurrect this thread for a little bit... I sent this in to VSS and it is now a newly-listed VAM! 1897 VAM-16, to be specific. He made short work...

I was so excited when I recently saw a fresh-looking '72 with doubling. Then I found another, and another... until I had a pile of coins all with similar...

[No_Ragrets]

So I apparently goofed and #8 was just a duplicate of #7. I was about to resend but noticed similar thumbnails in the "sent" folder so I checked...

[No_Ragrets]

My computer and email seem to be upset with me. I've tried sending 8 different photos so far but have gotten "undeliverable" responses several...

[No_Ragrets]

Apologies for the amount of emails you'll be receiving from me soon. I think I can only send two at a time, and I hope the email doesn't compress them....

[No_Ragrets]

That's great! I will absolutely take these pictures as requested and email them when they are ready. That might be a day or two until I get the time,...

[No_Ragrets]

I had actually recently started with compiling photos from the web (just for personal use of comparing to my collection) and storing them in my external...

[No_Ragrets]

I was able to get a closer look at this yesterday and tried to sift through more of NGS's listed varieties. The closest I can guess would be their VP-008...

[No_Ragrets]

I'm going to have to take a much closer look tomorrow at this coin, but your reply would explain why I can't find anything online that matches what I...

[No_Ragrets]

Hello everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I am posting here again because I am having trouble identifying the particular variety...

[No_Ragrets]

If this is a discovery coin, and assuming I choose to send it somewhere, who would I send it to? And how long would they potentially have it? I think...

[No_Ragrets]

I've got a few different (very cheap) setups that I use for taking pictures. The most defined pictures will come from my scope, but I also have a self-lit...

[No_Ragrets]

This coin is a V nickel, so if you have one of those links for that particular coin, I'd love to sift through the information it has!...

[No_Ragrets]

I'll see if these pictures go through. I was able to get the last glimpse of sunlight but it wasn't really ideal. Hopefully they convey the reflective...

[No_Ragrets]

I am still curious about those JD varieties. There's something happening with her nose that really stands out. And these fields are incredibly reflective....

[No_Ragrets]

I believe this date is something specific to whatever VAM this coin is. The 1 specifically looks like it has tripling or quadrupling going on, and that...

[No_Ragrets]

That was it! It's been hidden in my computer for the past 7 years and I had absolutely no idea it was there! And with that discovery, lo and behold, I...

[No_Ragrets]

So I think I've come to the conclusion, with the help of some folk over at Cointalk, that this particular coin seems to be an unlisted / unidentified...

[No_Ragrets]

It's the only thing I could think of for identification purposes. If this coin has one of these JD varieties, then I would assume it to be a proof coins....
