    I got this in a trade. Person said he bought it a long time ago and the dealer said there was something special about the nickle other then its extremely deep cameo. The ike is amazing i have no other sets with this much deep cameo and the grades look really high.

    Check the bottom of the bust for missing initials (it looks like they are there, but still check), and check to see if there are any areas that should be frosted but aren't, or vise-verse. Finally, check to make sure the correct mintmark punch was used (a real long-shot)

    the intials are there nothing seems off. I think i found a tiny crack or cut in the top of the building. and i cant see the mintmark clearly the batteries died on my 60x maganifer with my glass the s looks like a blob and is pretty small but all the other mintmarks look small to on the other coins
