Help!? 1953 NSF Near with missing Chrome?

Post by EJG » Fri Mar 23, 2018 10:06 am

Is this what I think it is? A 1953 NSF Near leaf with missing Chrome?

Help would be greatly appreciated!

That is a 1953 SF Near.
Hard to tell if it is a missing chrome nickel
or if the chrome has started to wear off.

Are you sure? It has a fold on her bust. It has a ring around the queen like I’ve seen on other coins that were short chrome.

Hello EJG

With chrome the coin has like blue reflections.

Without chrome there is no blue reflection and the coin is grayish.

Here is an example from 1952.
