<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 1076839, member: 15309&quot;]I agree, and Q. David Bowers loves the idea of full details rather than a strike designation that applies to only a small area of the coin.&nbsp; Here are some photographic examples of full step Jefferson Nickels with both strong strikes and weak strikes.</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin is one of the best struck Jefferson Nickels I have ever seen but it only has 5FS.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickels%20Full%20Steps/JN1943-SNGCMS665FSwLabel.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickels%20Full%20Steps/JN1943-SNGCMS665FSReverse.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now compare the overall strike on that coin to this poorly struck 1941-D with 6FS.&nbsp; Windows, doors, and hair!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickels%20Full%20Steps/JeffersonNickel1941-DNGCMS676FS2018.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickels%20Full%20Steps/JeffersonNickel1941-DNGCMS676FS2-2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I have a problem calling toned coins a fad, always have.&nbsp; The reason why nobody collected toned coins was because they didn&#039;t know about them.&nbsp; Once they started to discover them with the growth of the internet and advances in digital photography, the toned coin market has taken off and not looked back.&nbsp; I don&#039;t foresee the internet&nbsp; or eye appeal going away anytime in the near future.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
