<p>[QUOTE=&quot;stevereecy, post: 839760, member: 19884&quot;]Just a quick question abou Full Step Nickels for you guys:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>From what I can tell, PCGS will give a Jefferson the full step designation when it has 5 full steps. NGC and ANACS will differentiate whether there are 5 or 6 full steps.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My question is this: When I use a price guide, and I look up the price for an MS65 or MS66 nickel with &quot;full steps&quot;, do the price guides generally mean 5 full steps or 6? If the price guides generally mean 6 full steps, doesn&#039;t that pretty much render the &quot;FS&quot; designation by PCGS as almost useless?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And if I have an obvious 6 full step coin inside a PCGS slab, should I crack it out :hammer:and send it to NGC if it is a semi key in high grade? I just bought an MS66 (PCGS) 1942D and I haven&#039;t gotten the coin yet, but the pictures make it look like it has 6 full steps. It&#039;s an Omaha Bank Hoard coin, but it looks like it is graded correctly. Here&#039;s a link to it: <a href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2Fws%2FeBayISAPI.dll%3FViewItem%26item%3D320502560525%26ssPageName%3DSTRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2Fws%2FeBayISAPI.dll%3FViewItem%26item%3D320502560525%26ssPageName%3DSTRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;item=320502560525&amp;ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I think I stole it...but i won&#039;t know until I get a better look at it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
