[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 7476080, member: 15309"]Reveal: DGS MS64 [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/3uOBQSg.jpg[/IMG] I have been searching quite a while to find a DGS graded Jefferson Nickel. For anyone who doesn't know, DGS was founded by David Lawrence (2008 IIRC) who bought the defunct PCI leftover slab inventory. They were very conservative in their grading and they didn't last very long. As for the coin, it presents as a typical MS65, but I think that the large scrape in the upper reverse field is certainly reason enough to prevent an overall gem grade. And while the overall step detail is excellent, the large marks certainly disrupt the continuity of the lines, thereby precluding a FS designation. All in all, an attractive, accurately graded, and very affordable ($5) addition to my collection.[/QUOTE]
