Is that an actual picture of your coin? Looks almost like a drawing. No doubt about full steps. Cheers, RickO
Most of the newer nickels have the full step strikes so probably not much of a premium if any.

Thanks @ricko - it IS an actual photo from my Tomlov microscope, which I love. Sadly, I went through a bunch of nickels before I purchased the microscope. Today I found 5 FS nickels 2010P, 2013P, 2013P, 2016P, 2017P. The quality of the minting at Phila. for this particular variety of nickel seems excellent, very strong strikes. They are newer but circulated nickels so only worth a few dollars perhaps.
In 2019 the Denver mint put out some nice coins. Proof like and quality strikes. Some years are just better

I might be wrong and don't mind being corrected if I am, but I believe that FS designations only really matter with uncirculated/MS coins.
But it's good practice, in any case.
