    maybe, what is the extra stuff on the obverse neck?

  • Not sure, it doesn’t look like scratches?

    Likely would receive FS.
    Very common date with steps though.
    I sell them raw for a couple bucks a piece with steps.
    (Not as nice as yours though)
    Yours I would price at $5-6

    Ya that one might make it but unless it was a 66 or better it wouldn't be worth it

    @Matt1701 From this forum’s host:

    “Full Steps Jefferson Nickels: MS60 or better, at least five complete steps must appear on Monticello. Any steps that join or fuse together, whether created that way or subsequently damaged, cannot be considered for the Full Steps designation.”

    Possibly...difficult to tell from the picture....Check the link by @Hemispherical .... Probably not worth the investment to have it slabbed though... Cheers, RickO
