1926 near 6 at face

[cooyon]

My weekly trip to the LCS for Canadians yielded a 1926 near 6 nickel at face value, in a group of 25 coins, my first '26.

Bully!

How' does the coin look?

[cooyon]

It looks to be a VF-20, although there is a slight rim ding at 8 o'clock on the reverse. I would load a photo, but I don't know how to do that.

Thanks for the grading link! My coin looks like a VF-20, but the rim ding would reduce that. Anyway, it's a nice hole-filler and a keeper. Maybe my LCS will have another one at face without the rim problem LOL.

Thanks for the help!

Want to double your money?

I'm usually open to doubling my money, but in this case I need to keep this coin a bit longer. I just noticed that the die is rotated, judging by the photo. Could jack up the value(?).
