maybe it was in a bulk sub and the graders were in a state of fatique or
maybe that nickel had 49 "1995 special Olympic shriver commemorative's" before it that the graders had to suffer through
<< <i>How can this coin be a FS???? AM I missing something here???? I only count 4 full steps???

Your not missing nothing, you made a good catch on something that shouldn't exist !!!

How difficult of a feeling one must experience when they finally come to an understanding about the quality and viability of a coin they once purchased. A coin they once believed was on the up and up side to assembling that great collection. There are some extra costs associated to correcting a problem coin within this series. And there is no clear cut guarantee a problem has an easy solution. And the prospect of having the very people who caused the problem to correct it is some way can be daunting. This can't get any murkier than one just slipping the coin into a collection not knowing or rather thinking, I'll just let the next guy worry about it. All I can do is show a better coin and hopefully, someone will strive to obtain higher quality examples regardless what the label says. And of course, my opinion is not going to be understood by all at once either, if ever.

<< <i>Looks like it's no longer for sale, will probably show up in a registry set soon. >>
the seller relisted it and it does not look like a ms 66 to me either. one of them things i guess and its jm0
Edited: It's a D
Edited: The 1938-D MS67+ is not FS either. It doesn't even have a good 6th quarter step either but yet it was given the FS nod. There has to be complete separation between the 4th and 5th step under the 3rd pillar above the C in Monticello. That's my opinion. It's like, for these Reverse of 1938 struck coins, full steps is 4 and 1/2 or 4 and 3/4 steps.
The 3rd coin down, 1938-D MS67FS, looks like another 5445.
It just seems that the cheaper route that is taken, is to pass the buck/correction onto someone else and a problem coin is just not going to get fixed. Should that be a problem amongst serious collectors? It shouldn't.
The 1952-D, the obverse, in my opinion, shouldn't be of MS67 caliber.
I like the 1958-D although the strike could be stronger but someone will like this coin if the steps are there.

<< <i>AllCoinsRule - Isn't that 1975-P the same MS67FS I offered on the Registry Forum as an MS67FS with a comment that I thought the coin would likely become the first MS67+FS? I sold it in the Heritage sale for a customer and then it resold as the MS67+FS - no?

Was there a reason why your customer chose to sell a coin that great that had the potential to upgrade? I am baffled.

Yes, same 1975. You can look at the pictures from the previous auction and clearly the same coin. I'm sure there are more folks than we think are buying, attempting to upgrade and flipping coins. I just hope the folks doing this do not have special privileges with our host for a high percentage of upgrades. Even if they did not, this tells me our host is not hitting the grade the first time through. There can't be that many under-graded coins out there! Are there?

Nearly all of this sellers coins have been on ebay for years... I wonder how much he has paid in listing fees in that time?

<< <i>I've said it before but I believe these types of holders (with the series marked) were used at the time when PCGS was the most liberal with their grading. >>
Yes. That was Bushmaster's bane--he got into it with HRH about the liberal use of FBL designation on those Coin #/Series# slabs.

He's a Powerseller and has a store so he doesn't pay listing fees. So he can relist all his stuff for years and years and years...............
that was made a few years back, I won't say which one it is, but it is in coin facts and a
MS66FS, rather common year, that is IMO not a FS, however, judging by the pics
and IMO again should be a 67 and maybe even a plus, Price guide just dropped it's
value too this week, rather substantially.
