<p>[QUOTE=&quot;USS656, post: 378644, member: 6641&quot;]Rick,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I have seen a LOT of them this way.&nbsp; I think the Mint over-polished the dies to the point no steps are visible.&nbsp; The nickels are just as you explained - look new but no steps.&nbsp; The nickels in general seem a little brighter than normal (not quite mirror like but they look like they were polished to a nice shine) especially in the area of the steps.&nbsp; I have been paying particular attention to the steps in the 06 and 07 years as I have been putting some of the best with complete unbroken steps away. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>BTW - I have yet to see an 08 in this area!&nbsp; I&#039;m going through about $40 a week when I&#039;m not traveling so I&#039;m a bit surprised I have yet to see one.&nbsp; I would like to buy a few rolls if I could find any.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Best Regards</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Darryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
