Hello, penny pincher. Welcome to Variety Nickels. The 1940-D is usualy sharp and well struck. Five steps are very common. Please use this link to judge the step count of your coin.... LINK (click here)
I liked the pictures, but what about the steps on the far right and left, Including the landing these have 6 steps each also, Do they count for anything...Thanks...
Hi Penny Pincher, Welcome. The side steps are not counted in the step count on Monticello, just the center steps, although they are an important aspect of the strike as far as "full strikes" go. Hope that helps.
