[QUOTE="RonSanderson, post: 3766005, member: 77413"]I'm going for MS67+ on this one. Just a few marks left over from striking on the shoulder, which seems almost universal for Jeffersons. Edit: I meant marks on the cheek, not the shoulder. (I've been looking at Lincolns, where the planchet marks are predominately on the shoulder when the metal does not flow entirely up into the voids of the die. So I misspoke.) Nickel is hard, and the raw planchets are usually banged up, so I don't think these small marks that remain from the planchets have much effect on this grade. [ATTACH=full]1008192[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
