Nickel Guys whats your best step count on..............

Using the 5555 system, whats the best count you have on the Full Step Rarities like the 68D, 53S, 54S, 55D, 60P, 60D, 61P, 61D, 63D
ETC...ETC...and/or if it has 5555/nick, where as PCGS won't FS it.
Does'nt matter if it's raw or slabed. And scan if ya can.

I have a nice colorful 68D thats Raw that gets a 6335

    Some of the dates you listed are unknown in 6 full steps.

    I have a 1960-P that is 6556 with a @#$% nick that is keeping it out of a PCGS FS slab.

    I have a 1953-S in an old PCI slab with "MS63 Weak Strike 4.75 steps" on the insert. I submitted it myself and agree 100% with the opinion, there's the slightest miss under the third pillar. Accroding to my old checklist I have a '55-D with 4-1/2 steps, but I haven't looked at the actual coin inyears to corroborate that.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.
