Grade opinion: full-step nickels (caution, large images)

I pulled these four out of my modern full-step set, I haven't done much with the set since '95 or so. I had pretty good results with the earlier date material I sent PCGS, now I'm looking at the later dates for potential submissions.

I'm mad I didn't take them out of the 2x2s first, most of the dust and specs you see are on the holders and not the coins. I'm also mad the obverse of the '79 came out so blurry, since that may be the best score of the bunch - only 30 in FS in all grades.

Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    I'm assuming they are all full step.

    IMO. I can't give you the steps since I can't see them well enough and this also goes for the grades. Based on what I could see this is what I think they grade out as.

    But it's hard to really tell with the debris from the 2x2's on the plastic.

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
