Please guess the grade of the 1942-P Jefferson Nickel shown below. I have attached a poll for you to cast your vote and you may select up to 3 different things: the numerical grade, FS or NOT FS, and + grade or star designation. Please don't forget to vote in the poll, and as always, comments welcome.
65 5FS ...steps are there; as for the grade, it looks a point weaker than all of the prior ones so that meant 65 to me
REVEAL: 1942-P Jefferson Nickel NGC MS66 Nobody got this one right, and only a few had it grading MS66. I am sure the light scratch above the dome on the reverse was the cause of the conservative grading but it is much less prominent in hand. Curiously, in the original thread, only 42.1% of the respondents thought this coin was full steps, whereas that number rose to 71.4% in this thread. That is a pretty big disparity. I had predicted this coin would graded MS66 5FS.
