But not sure if it is a proof surface or not. What is the year, mint, type? Nice doubling, but the only DD I have in the series is the '39 -022 Jim   11-15-2008, 06:11 PM   #3 (permalink) BigDowgie Junior Member   Join Date: Nov 2008 Posts: 21 Jim, It's not a proof and you are in the correct decade.

I remember rthem as a kid, and they are not even listed in coneca variety listings i wonder why. i have a 1951s jefferson nickle with double bottom steps and dome and i can;t even find a listing for that one.i think that one is a different variety altogether.

They are not even listed in the coneca listings. I have a couple of 64 nickles with double domes and in the sixties they were classified as double dies, but i don't know what happnd to them. I have a 1951S too with doubled steps and dome which is not in the listings either I'm not to happy about this[IMG]http://smileys.*************.com/cat/36/36_1_46.gif[/IMG] Jazzcoins Joe [IMG]http://www.*************.com/sig.jsp?pc=ZSzeb113&pp=ZSman000[/IMG]   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
