<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 655437, member: 15309&quot;]Technically, that is incorrect.&nbsp; PCGS has always used the standard that 5 full steps merited the full step strike designation.&nbsp; NGC&#039;s standard was originally that the nickel must have 6 complete steps.&nbsp; In order to compete with PCGS, NGC was forced to add the second designation and now employs both 5FS and 6FS.&nbsp; They did not collaborate to create a new marketing scheme, it happened naturally.&nbsp; You are certainly welcome to the opinion that a 5FS nickel is not full steps, and there are many that would agree with you.&nbsp; However, the market assigns a premium based on 5FS and it is unwise to ignore that fact.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
