Mark: You want to talk about "rare", let's talk about the gem 1970(d) Jefferson nickel I graded today in PCGS-MS65FS. Now, that's "super dooper rare". Now that I have your attention, please PM me with a price on your 1989(p) nickel as that is a really cool coin too you made! Congratulations! Wondercoin.

You made a 70-d in 5 fs?? I just made 3 of them in 6 fs.

Just kidding!! Nice coin! I will contact you.

What do the 1970 MS65FS usually cost?

The 1970(d) Jefferson Nickel is one of the scarcest FULL STEP coins in the entire series 1938-date. Of course, I said "one of" because coins such as the 1953(s), 1954(s), 1960(d), 1961(d) and 1938(s) are MONSTERS in full step, as well as many other Jeffersons from 1965-1970. Finding one of these dates in FULL STEP is hard enough; finding one of them in true GEM FULL STEP is virtually impossible imho. What makes this particular 1970(d) a truly amazing coin is that the piece is also approaching 6 full steps (where 5 - 1/2 steps is what it basically takes to pull a PCGS FS coin). Many years from now, when Jefferson Nickels are collected and priced in PCGS holders based upon whether the coin has 5 steps, 5 1/2 steps or 6 steps, a true rarity such as this 1970(d) may command multiples of typical 5 step price for 5 1/2-6 steps.

IMHO, a coin of this rarity is already a "five figure coin" to serious Jefferson enthusiasts - how deeply into five figures depends upon factors such as demand, state of the ecomony, what auction it is offered in or who is selling it, etc.

This particular PCGS 1970(d) nickel already has a nice home and I expect will be treated warmly for many years to come. Wondercoin.

That is a great coin, the 70-D that is, and hopefully one of the top 2 sets picked it up. I'm looking forward to seeing who will be first, Frank or Ray, to achieve the 100% full step set.

I would guess the 70-D went in the high five figures and if no more are graded anytime soon, then the coin was a steal at that price ($12 to $15K is more realistic).

A dealer in CW had a 1970(d) ANACS MS65 5 step nickel for sale in the past for
$1,500.00. He had the coin advertised for quite a while. I realize alot of the ANACS 5 steppers
won't cross to PCGS FS.

Full Steps: As you know, valuing these types of coins is very difficult to do. A coin such as the 1970(d) nickel in TRUE GEM 65FS with very close to 6 steps is a special coin - no doubt. But, as you know, post 1964 coins have yet to see "their day in the sun". It is not just nickels. Kennedys, clad quarters, clad dimes and Memorial Cents could potentially get just as exciting to collect (and possibly near as pricey) as Ikes are now for example. I think almost everyone could agree that the first decade of the 21st Century may go down as a very interesting era in coin collecting! Wondercoin

There are still many full-step collectors who don't collect anything
after 1964. Which is certainly odd since the series continues ess-
entially unchanged to the present day. Many may never relent, but
collecting will go on and these coins are finally attracting lots of at-
tention. Many of the post 1970 nickels while not rare in full steps,
are none the less, excruciatingly rare in gem full step.
