That's exactly what I was going to say until I read your post. I don't even see 1 full step let alone all of them.
It's just the way they tone. A nice champagne color. No added value.
I think the record for a FBL with this date is a MS-66 around 65-70k. A '53-s with FBL is one tough coin to find. Who knows, maybe it will break...
I think it's 42 across the board. Very low and pricy. I did take it you meant FBL.

I have a FBL PCGS MS-64. What a price jump for a point higher. I couldn't afford a MS-65 set so I'm putting together a set of PCGS FBL MS-64's....

What a minute Paddy. She spotted the coin and you found it? lol Great find and totally unexpected. Also enjoyed the lizards. Enjoy yourselves.
Looks like the P was filled with dirt/debris at the time of minting.
Patience and lots of it. I've been looking for 2 coins to complete a very specific set for over 5 years now. I've found what I want but I'll not...
