snailking1 Pillar of the Community United States 1480 Posts	Posted 04/17/2026 8:26 pm Not too bad of shape for a '49S Lower mintage of just under 10M (I only keep 40's & 50's with mintage under 50M. How about you?) Don't know if those die scrapes are FFD. I know on modern nickels, FFD is in a NE to SW direction. How about older nickels? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
