Lot Title:	Complete collection of Liberty nickels in a Library of Coins album
Lot Number:	217
Description:	Tush Acreage Estate. The quality is just about near-sensational for this Liberty nickel set, aside from a few circulated pieces. The vast majority has been upgraded to the UNC level, except that 1883 "no-cents" appears to be a PROOF (or a highly deceptive prooflike example). 1887 may well be a proof as well, but even more important, 1885 seems to be a modestly impaired proof, while 1886 seems to be a circulation coin struck on an imperfect planchet. 1894 should grade AU, but we note that the 1912-S appears to be NOT GENUINE / ADDED MINTMARK.
Estimate:	$3,200-$4,000

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
