1939 in great shape, thoughts?

[tttwism]

I found a 1939 in great shape, looking for input. also the nickel is 1966 and the other is just showing how far it is rotated, again, any thoughts, and last, is it common for the S mark to be high and low on the 1969 nickel?

If the '39 nickel is 'plain', it's common (120 million + minted) and worth about $5 if it were in MS-65 condition.

what do you mean "plain"?

No mink mark, made in Philadelphia. Compared to the 1939-S which is a key date.

Since mintmarks were hand punched, they can be everywhere in that vicinity.

For some reason I find quite a few 1939's in really good condition. I've put a few in mylars but usually just put them in the tubes with the rest of my 38-39's.

The '39D is more of a key date. A '39P in that condition....spend it. Even in XF it's only worth maybe $.30. Same with the others....coinstar fodder.

Remarkable condition. Keep it in a dry area, it may only be worth $5 at the moment but I doubt many are in such good condition, and will remain so as time passes. you find this while coin roll'n?
