Looks good to me. But realistically what percentage would you give this one?
You can't talk me out of sending it in so I might NEED a reality check.
Thanks.

    Oh well, you can't talk me into to sending it in now.
    Still want to know going forward.

    The '80 comes really nice; much nicer than this which is barely in the 90th %ile.

    Very few post-'70 nickels are very tough in FS. The services want nice clean coins with FS and these can be much tougher. All dates are plagued with scratches and most with planchet scratches. The '80's are among the very cleanest of them. Reverses on the Denver coin are often highly PL and it's not unusual on the Philly.

    Great pictures... and I also magnified them... I do not think it will make FS I see four, but at the fifth, to the right, they mash together. We will see if others agree. Cheers, RickO

    The mint set crimping damage is also distracting and I believe will limit the grade. Some buyers will even reject it as a BU because of this.

    Several members told me that my Jefferson was not FS, go figure.
