<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 2184710, member: 15309&quot;]I have never been to a coin show and did not inherit any of them.&nbsp; I built my collection by searching online auctions, mostly Heritage, E-Bay, and David Lawrence.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The 1940-D meets the requirements for 5FS (NGC) or FS (PCGS).&nbsp; Using the quarter step method, the coin grades 6-5-5-6.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickels%20Full%20Steps/JN1940-DNGCMS675FSSteps.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I paid $88 for that coin in February 2012.&nbsp; Normally I would say that the NGC retail price is unrealistic, but considering the eye appeal of the coin, it might bring $200 if I decided to sell it.&nbsp; I actually considered this coin an upgrade over my original 1940-D which was a 6 stepper.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickels%20Full%20Steps/JeffersonNickel1940-DNGCMS67FSwLabel.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickels%20Full%20Steps/JeffersonNickel1940-DNGCMS67FSReversesteps.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>As for how I got all these gems, my friend, you have only seen the tip of the iceberg.&nbsp; Enjoy!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickel%20Registry/AtlanticCitySetofJeffersonNickels010113_zps67d336ee.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.www.collectors-society.com/registry/coins/MySets_Listing.aspx?PeopleSetID=55274" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.www.collectors-society.com/registry/coins/MySets_Listing.aspx?PeopleSetID=55274" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://boards.collectors-society.com/signatures/signature.php/NGC/set/55274/sig.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
