<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikenoodle, post: 487545, member: 307&quot;]Jody, the definition for what grades FS by TPGs like PCGS for dates before 1971 is that if a coin has 5 steps, it garners the FS designation. There are several dates for which the working hub only had 5 steps, so a 6 step complete date and mintmark collection may indeed be impossible, but most full step collectors will settle for 5 step coins in those cases.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think that although you may have meant it constructively, to call someone&#039;s pursuit unrealistic and unreachable seems a bit cold and negative. I submit to you that (5) full step sets exist, but many of the coins are yet to be &quot;discovered&quot; as they are in rolls and mints sets. But then again, I tend to side with the dreamers often.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
