[QUOTE="kharmon, post: 783517, member: 22036"]I just recently started searching some rolls. I bought $10 in nickels the other day and the oldest thing I found was a 1954D. I also found a 69s and 70s but they are pretty banged up. My goal is to put together a set of Jeffersons from circulation and I have a question. Naturally, I want to put together the best conditioned coin from circulation I can find. What I have been looking for in nickels 1990 to date are coins that I can count the steps on the back and no obvious marks or dings to the Jeffersons face on the obverse. I've also been looking at rim damage and picking the best from each year and setting it aside. The rest I'm going to reroll and trade out when and where I can. Am I looking for the right things when I look at these nickels? I'm using a pretty powerful magnifying glass when I look. What condition should I be looking for on the older nickels. I have yet to find anything older than 1994 that had any steps still visible.[/QUOTE]
