Hi David:
This whole concept of a Full Step "FS" designation for the REVERSE seems to be okay, but is there a intermediate step that should be considered such as Full Monticello "FM". It seems that there are some well struck examples of dates such as the 1953-s and other dates from the 1950's and 60's that do not qualify for a Full Steps designation, but have a nice Full Monticello. Such coins should have a premium over the typical UNC that looks weak due to die fatgue, etc. Would PCGS consider a Full Monticello designation for Jeffersons?

Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

Can't do it. The majority of the market place likes things simple. So we have full bands Mercury dimes that may have weak letters and full step Jefferson nickels that may have some weakness in other areas of the coin. In those instances the weakness is incorporated into the grade, but not the "full whatever" designation.
Thanks,
David
