Today I bought a box of about 140 unsearched foreign silver coins.
There was one non-silver coin in the box: an 1886 Liberty nickle.

Wow! That's a find. What grade? Can you post a pic?

You'll be able to get maybe G money for that! Very nice find, most
1886 5c have less detail than that.

Yeah, that's what I figured, because of the pitting, if I decide to
sell it I will sell it as G.
I always figure it's better to err on the side of caution when grading
coins to sell.
