1969-D Jefferson.....How do these steps compare?

Been looking at a lot of Jefferson nickels lately. It seems that one of the toughest dates to find decent step strike is the '69-D. Even searching auction archives and looking through registries, nothing even close to FS can be found.

Came across this one that seems a little better than average:

    That is exceptionally nice, the steps are not full but they are better than probably 98% of the coins out there. Was the coin found in a Mint set?

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    Great example! Tough coin with any full "step lines".
