<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Puddin&#039;Farts, post: 3558958, member: 100439&quot;]It&#039;s certainly Mint State. All 5 are actually very nice coins for the $18 invested. My reference of the one auctioned is evidence that although for many years, the break is an issue and will likely not reach FS designation but I mean..you&#039;ve probably seen even more 1964 Nickels than myself and are aware that most are just mushy with no steps. The gouge is from the minting process and coins hitting off of each other... plenty of Ike&#039;s, Morgan&#039;s, Halves, and Quarters that are mint state with Reed imprints and scratches from that process. The standard is specific, although I think we can all agree that with certain years and mints, beggers can&#039;t be choosers so to speak? Like a 1969 P Quarter reaching higher grade more on eye appeal vs technicality because of it being a terrible year. Thank you for your opinion but I don&#039;t understand the reasoning to assume because I hadn&#039;t shown the entire coin that it was circulated. My specific question regarded the steps, not the grade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
