wmd New Member Canada 41 Posts	Posted 04/24/2011 3:44 pm Check the "I" in "DEI". If the "I" is flared at the ends its a NSF No flares on the "I" indicates a shoulder fold. Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9879 Posts	Posted 04/24/2011 3:50 pm A serious question If one can see a shoulder fold how can it not be there? Edited by DBM 04/24/2011 3:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Jayman931 Pillar of the Community United States 2651 Posts	Posted 04/24/2011 4:53 pm I am using the wrong terms I guess...I was thinking NSF meant Near Shoulder Fold... I guess it means No Shoulder Fold. So I just have a Near Leaf with Shoulder Fold...it is weird because one "I" looks flared and one looks straight.

cladhunter13 Pillar of the Community Canada 1161 Posts	Posted 04/24/2011 9:27 pm This may help. 1953 Nickel: Look at "I" of DEI on the obverse and you the diagram below to make your determination on which it is. And then use the following pictures to help you determine if it is a near or far leaf. Far Leaf: Near Leaf: Report this Post to the Staff
Jayman931 Pillar of the Community United States 2651 Posts	Posted 04/25/2011 11:40 pm I checked the Obverse side and it definitely is the "No Flare" "I"... So I have a common Near SF... Report this Post to the Staff
