<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pickin and Grinin, post: 3071965, member: 73995&quot;]Here are the guidelines for 5 step Jefferson Nickels.</p><p>Written by Bernard Nagengast Author of &quot; The Jefferson Nickel Analyst&quot;[ATTACH=full]772009[/ATTACH]</p><p>This it taken out of the Red book on Buffalo and Jefferson Nickels.</p><p><br /></p><p>1938 has it&#039;s own guidelines. The steps are bridged in quite a few areas giving a wavy look to them. In order to get the five step designation, the fifth step must be defined, even under the third pillar from the left. Not only having a defined indent separating the fourth step, but also not blending into the field below. </p><p><br /></p><p>I am not trying to bad mouth ICG in saying that they aren&#039;t qualified to grade coins, but what you have to remember is you are buying an opinion, And for the most part you get what you pay for. And that is usually an in educated guess. My experience is they can be 1 to 2 points off, and you are probably better cracking the coin, in order to sell it.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=77066]@ValpoBeginner[/USER] I hope it is just your photos, and they are lacking the necessary depth of the steps to show us what you see. I am looking forward to your new Photos.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
