[QUOTE="mikenoodle, post: 1340308, member: 307"]Why on earth would you slab a 50-D? Low mintage, maybe... key date, definitely not! This date is readily available in MS grades and about 1 in 10 coins will have 5 FS. Now, if you can find a 6 FS coin, that's the only one worth grading IMHO unless you're talking MS-68 or so. What some collectors don't know is that this particular date/mm combination was released at a time when coin collectors were stashing coins away by the roll and they knew that this mintage was going to be small, so almost all of them were hoarded rather than circulated. I personally believe that the 2009-P Jeffersons will suffer much the same fate. Very few will circulate and years from now the only condition you'll ever see them in is MS.
