The correct answer is believe it or not PCGS 65. And the winners are: Jim M Phoenix21 USS656 If you PM me as to where you would like your 1957 US 5 cent piece ( AKA 1957 Nickel) sent I'll get them right out. Congrats! I thought about giving one to each that guessed SGS MS70 for it definately is an SGS MS70 quality coin but they missed the Full Steps! Sorry.

Perhaps they should apply for jobs at PCGS, apparently I will never make the grade.

Besides - I get enough criticism at work as it is, why would I want a job where everyone disagrees with my opinion. __________________ Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it. http://www.banknotebank.com/?collection=uss656   02-04-2008, 09:32 AM   #8 (permalink) nickelman Coin Hoarder     Join Date: Nov 2005 Location: Top of Virginia Posts: 965 Quote: Originally Posted by USS656 Besides - I get enough criticism at work as it is, why would I want a job where everyone disagrees with my opinion.
