johnny676767 Pillar of the Community United States 522 Posts	Posted 02/18/2013 2:39 pm Hello, I am looking at purchasing a 1950 D Jefferson nickel. It is one of 5 Jeffersons I have not been able to pull out of circulation. For this one, though, I'd like to get an uncirculated coin. Does anyone have any tips on strike quality? I've seen examples with 4.5-5 steps and some with weak pillars. Any general recommendations would be welcome. Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

A good strong strike, with good definition of the columns and the pediment is every bit as important. Edited by NJ Bob 02/21/2013 8:56 pm Report this Post to the Staff
