OcalaFlorida Pillar of the Community United States 2824 Posts	Posted 01/08/2016 12:57 pm Are 6 Full Steps on 1969-S Jefferson nickel rare? I was trying to put together a full step set and I found this in my collection. Someone told me a 1969-S is extremely rare? Ans I should try to get it slabbed? Is that true.. Any comments, suggestions or feedback welcome... Edited by OcalaFlorida 01/08/2016 1:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 01/08/2016 1:21 pm I think it has a heck of a shot. And I seem to vaugly remember the 69s having no fs pop coins. Could be a different late 60s or early 70s date though but 69s is ringing a bell Report this Post to the Staff
