<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nate Flannery, post: 24879883, member: 151938&quot;]Does anybody know if NGC and/or PCGS automatically add &quot;SMS&quot; to the slab for 2009 nickels that came from uncirculated mint sets? Or do you have to pay extra for the &quot;SMS&quot; designation?</p><p><br /></p><p>Specifically, I have seen some high-grade (&gt;MS65) 2009 nickels that look like a satin finish but don&#039;t say &quot;SMS&quot; on them. An MS67 &quot;SMS&quot; nickel is very common, and actually a relatively low grade for a 2009 &quot;SMS&quot; nickel. But an MS67(or better) Business Strike nickel is pretty rare.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t want to pay a bunch of money for a high-grade, 2009 business strike nickel that is actually a common &quot;SMS&quot; nickel. Thanks for any replies![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
