So I came up on this 1950 D Nickel. I like it and I don't know if it would qualify for full steps designation. I want to send it to ANACS as I am not a member of any of the others and would like to know if ANACS does full steps designation and what do you think this would grade. I don't want to send it in if it's going to be a lower than worth it grade. Thanks guys and gals I am still working on the photo skills so bare with me on the reflections!

It's kinda hard to tell from the picture, could you provide just a close up of the steps? Oh, and ANACS do provide FS designation(but they write on the slab 5 step, 5.5 step, and 6 step). It looks like a pretty high grade coin, so it will probably grade a MS66, unless there are some major marks that are hidden in the photo. Very beautiful coin. If your ever interested in selling it, PM me.

there's some spotting on the obverse,
here's one without the lights, just gloomy light coming in from the window and the results I get is bad fuzzy pictures.
After checking the steps closer in this last lighted picture I don't think it might get the full step designation. to be honest I don't know lol. Here are the pictures second set of pictures.

It has some rub/contact marks on the jaw bone and collar and a couple of small nicks on the cheek, hair and collar. So I would say 65 no full steps. 'I' would not send it off to be graded.
Very nice coin though.

just my 2 Cents worth.

Its a beautiful coin that should grade MS65. After looking at the close up of the steps, I don't see this one getting a FS designation.
