<p>[QUOTE="cncman, post: 547809, member: 17256"]in 1990 they strengthened the dies and it is typical to have FS from then on. The FS designation is most usefull for early jeffersons where the strikes were not that strong, and certain die designs made FS very difficult. certain dates are common in FS certain are not, the more rare it is the more desireable the FS is. Yes the steps have to be unbroken, no bridge or marks that would break a clear seperate line. Good luck to your collecting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
