Can't tell from the blurry pics BUT newer dated nickels have wonderful full steps minted - so not a big deal. More of a constant!

I gave up on these years ago. Not into striking issues. More of a die Variety fan. DDO DDR and RPMs are more my interests.

Modern nickels in MS or proof are "expected" to have FS, so no big deal when they do.

It appears to be circulated so it can't be graded as "Full Steps" anyway.
Rest in Peace

I tend to disagree , I'm confident that Full Steps can surely be struct on AU-55-58 Jefferson's .

I agree to some extent with you T-BOP and I collected some nickels with well struck steps on AU coins that are unusual issues found with full steps in MS.
I value them as better finds over some low MS, weak step nickels from the same mint and year.

I don't think a TPG will assign a FS grade on a circulated Jefferson nickel though. There isn't a price guide for AU and lower Jefferson nickels in the FS category. Most nickels struck with Monticello on the reverse in the past couple decades normally have well defined steps.

Agree, FS nickels from this era are the norm.

I'm not sure there's much market for AU or lower Full Step Nickels anyways.
