fioti Pillar of the Community United States 4212 Posts	Posted 05/27/2019 8:21 pm Just from the continuity of the lettering & the steps, we're looking at a proof. Just the last certified 4 steps garnered nearly 4K on the bay. The SMS is readilly avail. for 2 bucks. I've box-found a few with a single, but they were broken up. Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 05/27/2019 9:13 pm It's not how many steps you see ,It's how many uninterrupted steps there are . By that I mean straight lines with no hits dents or wear on them . Report this Post to the Staff
mikem007 Valued Member United States 318 Posts	Posted 05/27/2019 9:26 pm Above the "T" is what the experts consider "bridging" between two steps. I have several early 1960s Nickels that didn't get Full Steps due to bridging. And I agree with fioti on this might be an SMS nickel but I'm only guessing based on the gloss-like surface in the photos. TPGs will not give full step designation on proofs or SMS nickels.
