Nah, I’m a toner guy, I covet eye appeal above strike always. I think I have only four 6FS coins in my registry set: 1940, 1940-S, 1942-D, & 1942-P.
So much for starting us off easy Jason. This coin is extremely hard to grade from photos. My initial impression from the top of the eagles wings...
The problem is that very few Jefferson Nickels have 6 full steps.
FYI, only uncirculated examples are eligible for full steps.
Yes, we are gonna need the better photos.

There were no war nickels minted at the Denver mint in 1942. All the nickels minted in Denver in 1942 had the mintmark to the right of...
The mintmark wasn't moved to the obverse until 1968. Outside the war nickels, the mintmark was always located to the right of Monticello.
The only overdate on Jefferson War Nickels is the 1943/2-P, and they all look the same. I have owned a half a dozen of them over the years. Here...
I would want a first edition in English of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy. [IMG]
