Message:: [QUOTE="Eire73, post: 1048351, member: 27047"]A Jefferson Nickel collector always looks for full steps coins or as near as you can find. However being one of the coins high spots and the nature of the steps them selves it's hard to find the perfect coin. Also consider nickels that are MS coins not proof struck most of the time there are multi millions minted . Dies are maxed out producing coins,they are used until the fail or explode from wear. Finding that FS coin even in a MS 62 is a plus and will command more money/value. Philly produces for the most part more coins than Denver or SF with SF being proof strikes. With that said P minted coins you can go thought bricks of rolls before finding a FS coin. As far as your question no is my answer as you may get lucky and find a roll that all are FS and again you may not find one again depending on how many coins were struck by the die. I'll try to post some nickels that are on the end of a run of a die...you'll see how bad the strikes are...not sharp like coins that were first strikes from the same die. The 5 cent coin is a work horse not minted to be pretty, but to be used for many years as making change from a dollar.[/QUOTE]
