The steps can be quite a challenge--I've yet to find any pre-80s FS in the $1000 ive looked at this last month. I have found a few partial FS, but no true genuine Full Step nickel. Personally, I try not to worry about it too much and focus more on the Obverse--the hair and cheek. Beautiful obverses are relatively avaiable with maybe one per box in the pre-70 area...70+ are still around plenty. I care more for ANY steps more than Full Step. I don't like having a blank slope, but if you can readily make out a few lines without using a lense, I consider it a success.
