[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 1591229, member: 22585"]There certainly isn't! Jefferson nickels are a great coin to collect for many reasons. Sure, aside from a couple of key dates, they are pretty inexpensive in uncirculated condition. Putting together an uncirculated set can be done easily and inexpensively. However, some collectors, like myself, go beyond that and collect high grade, toned examples. The long history of this series has been plagued with terribly worn dies, weak strikes, low MS grades and inferior overall eye appeal for many of it's years. Since the composition of the coin is not silver, except for the war nickels, beautiful toning isn't as easy to come by compared to it's silver counterparts (dimes, quarters, etc..). If you throw the full-step designation into it, it becomes an even greater challenge to put together a gem set. For some years, it becomes near impossible. The Jefferson series get's a bad rap and is very underrated, in my opinion. When most people think of Jefferson nickels, they think of the one in their pocket they received in change at the store. I haven't seen nickels like this in my change! Maybe these will show off how amazing Jeffy's can be.
