Hello To All,
I recently purchased a 1969-D Jefferson which has over half the steps on it!

Seller claims 4+Steps! Seeing as how it would be almost impossible to find in a True Full Five Step, I grabbed it! I know Pcgs an Ngc wouldn't even consider putting almost fs on their holders. So I called in to Anacs, they only put 5 or more steps on the Label-holder. Didn't want ICG,I had terrible business' with them in the past/So , I called in to SEGS , the lady said no problem, we can put the # of steps on it for you, no problem!

(If it wasn't for this date, I'd probably bypass all of this,however' with this being "THE RAREST' IN THE JEFF-SERIES, BEIN> IN A FULL-STEP!" I quickly went back to Ben Nagengast's, Jefferson Analyst Book in which he states, that it is even Very Rare' with more than half the steps on this coin. I also added in the fact, that there are a couple Sellers out on ebay now, that have these incredibly rare dates with SEGS Cert- asking $295 to $495 an Up! Just haven't ever seen one with a 1969-D yet!

I'm not doing this for the money, just wanting to get as close as I can on this
(69-D) as I can. A (1 in a 10,000) in FS! /So, getting as close as I could without breaking the bank, with at least half of the steps being there? SEGS, not the Top Grading-Service, but I would think they have Graders there knowledgable enough to know an' label this, a (almost full-step). I thought it'd be awesome havin this one particularly being the King of the Series in a Certified Holder showing all this.

Seller wrote this> HIGH GRADE =+ 4+ STEPS+ STEPS 4=2=5=6--VERY RARE WITH FULL STEPS NICE SHARP STRIKE,HARD TO GET IN HIGHER GRADES Once, I get this in the mail, I'll try to put a photo up for all to see...
Everyone have a Great-Day! Jim/Chasindreams

    I decided to submit/send my 1969-(D)enver Jeff-into (S.E.G.S). Hopefully, I'll get a 4+ Count on the step-area, using their quarterly step method. This grading service is the only out there that would even consider doing that on their Certified holders.

    Alot of collectors don't see this grading service worth fooling with. In my opinion, I've seen a few certified slabs to know,(as far as them recognizing the steps) its'
    right on, most of the time. This coin does not having a full complete step-area, however, I feel even with this rare & difficult date I can't go wrong if I can get
    this certified with its step count.

    What makes this so awesome is the fact it will still be considered a very rare coin. (B.Nagengast) with even Half the steps showing. Being Realistic, I'll never find/or get one in a Complete FS! This is as good as its' gonna get. Now, When I get this back from (S.E.G.S.) you'll see what I mean by close!
    By the way, your welcome to visit my Registry Collection of Jefferson Nickels, read my Bio & Journals, I think you will enjoy the stories.
    = Type in, Ngc Registry/nickels/1938 to date,circulated series, look for jb4gpo/Jim's Jeffersons' > Enjoy!
