1957 Nickel Fullsteps

I'm confused, I was looking at 2013 coin talk discussion about the value of the 1957 nickel. this coin has full steps, and is in 65-66 condition but I am not close to know what I'm talking about. It doesn't have a mint mark but it shines like a Proof?

You'd need clearer pictures of the actual steps to be able to determine if it would be considered "full steps".

 

The coin looks like a proof coin in which case the steps are irrelevant. That is a designation reserved for superlatively struck circulation coins.

 

I'll see what I can do , I understand that you just can't take my word for it

 

Im sorry I missed your reply, you say it is a proof?

 

Looks proof to me, too.

 

Thanks

 

How generous..........

 

I wish we could rate these threads. I am about a 2/10 on this one.
Initially I wasn't thinking proof because of the rims.
But the obverse certainly looks like a proof.
I wasn't seeing full steps, but as a proof it is disqualified from that designation as Mike and Rick already pointed out.

 

I appreciate your input, however, I'm disappointed that it is a proof but this is how you learn. But, it is still a pretty coin.
Thank you,
