<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BR549, post: 996966, member: 7110&quot;]The lack of contact marks is essential when you get into the realm of 67+ but what is vital is mint luster and definition of strike. There are times when a scanner bed image of a coin does not do justice to the actual coin, so that must be taken into consideration when previewing for opinions. This might grade 67 in one house and 66 in yet another, but in the case of this one, I do not think this &quot;war era&quot; nickel has the necessary &quot;pop&quot; to garner the coveted 67.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am by no means an &quot;expert&quot; in the field of grading Jefferson nickels, but after looking at literally 100&#039;s or 1,000&#039;s of nickels from this era, you get that gut instinct feeling for a high grade coin. It is still a rather nice example of this date and mint, nothing to turn your nose up to, good luck.</p><p><br /></p><p>Happy Collecting[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
