Now, there are literally billions of nickels with full steps. Putting it on the label of a modern nickel is nonsense. You might just as well state on the label that the obverse has a full Jefferson head. MS 68 is practically flawless.</p><p>Your nickel isn&#039;t even MS and it&#039;s worth .05 cents so why mention it?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
