Good Finds at Rite Aid

lets see i got a nice looking 1961 dime today
a wonderful 1970 S nickel ( i love the S's)
and a 1959 nickel i want to ask your opinion baout


its a 1959 plain (P) coin very nice detail on the jefferson.
other side shows 3 to 4 steps.and rest of detail
nice full rims on both sides
very nice strike and looking.
got it in the draw any idea on grades.? i would suspect ef-40 or vg-35

i see very light marks but nothing that would take away from the coin. you have to look to find them

    any closer and i scratch the screen.

    im wiating on a scanner. still but from teh description when a coin has full rims nice full jefferson hair detail and 3 steps what is it. I know its alot nicer tahn G VG F and possibly even VF but i would like your ideas on what a 3 step jeffy normally is

    Nice find on the '59-P. Those are a lot tougher to find in circulation than D-mints. And finding any silver in change is an accomplishment. (Usually the odd War nickel is about it for me.)

    Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.

    Nice haul, thats a year's worth of change finds around here. You Jeff certainly sounds like it would tend toward EF, if not AU. Me Lord is certainly correct that the '59 Ps -- same is true for '58s -- are much scarcer than the D mints.

    I got change back the other day, 3 BU Red 1960 pennies. They look like they just came from an original roll. Strange.

    I'd say the dime was your big score for the day.

    My best change pull happened last weekend, when I got a Awesome toned 46s Roosevelt, and and 2 44D Jeffs in the same night all AU MAYBE MS60-62. Roosie from a gas station and the Jeffs in change at a bar. Odd but very cool.
    if you got franklins, i'm interested
