Full steps verses full strike!

For the Jefferson nickel collectors out there, to what degree does a nick on the steps really bother you? Especially if the coin has been certified as having full steps but yet the nick should have prevented a FS designation. In this case, you bought a certified FS nickel over the internet for a fairly nice chunk of money. Whether it was $60, $600 or $6000, any of those amounts could qualify. Upon receiving the coin, the nick is there and the coin is really not a FS nickel. Do you.......

A. Return the coin to the seller.

B. Keep the coin.

C. Accept the coin because it has a full strike.

The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!
