<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cladking, post: 87806, member: 68&quot;]This is a spectacular coin.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Besides being so inexpensive compared to older coins there are multiple ways to collect the nickels.&nbsp; Some of these are not extremely popular so it&#039;s possible to put together important and rare sets on a shoestring.&nbsp; For instance this &#039;68-D can also be found with razor sharp strikes and all the devices and lettering fully struck but without full steps since many dies never had this detail included.&nbsp; Fairly clean examples of such coins can be found encapsulated for a few dollars or raw for much less.&nbsp; This issue also appears in PL.&nbsp; These, too, can be found cheaply.&nbsp; If you prefer then you can seek the coins in circulation and you&#039;d find they&#039;re extremely challenging and fun to put together a set in nice condition.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Most collectors would be amazed at what can be found in such coins.&nbsp; There have always been coins made by the mint which were not intended and these can be anything from chain strikes to branch mint proofs.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The estimate for this coin sounds a little high but imagine what a pop-1 classic coin would sell for.&nbsp; There are thousands of collectors of full step nickels and it gets less likely with each passing day that many more of these will be found.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
