Hi,

This is the 3rd and final Jefferson War Nickel I would like to have graded.

Please give your opinion on the grade you think it should be and whether or not I should spend my time and money getting it slabbed.

Thank you,

I'm still understanding how to count the steps so forgive me as I won't be much help. So would this coin count as 6-3-2-5 in regards to the steps?

Rsx,

I do not have a clue and this is the reason I put my three (3) request on the CC.

I would greatly appreciate it, however, that when you (or any CC member) finds out more info to answer my questions, please also address my other two Jefferson nickel requests:

I personally don't think there are a whole lot of Jefferson nickels worth slabbing. I've busted quite a few MS66's out of slabs already for my Dansco. If you thought that a coin could make MS67 or maybe 66 FS then possibly... But I still probably wouldn't. I would have when I first started collecting them and thought that getting something slabbed was a big deal, but I don't any more. Others here are different and some are not, but I wouldn't slab this coin. Full Steps to me are hard to judge from scans/pictures and it might be in hand, but the steps seem to merge under the second pillar which would keep this from making FS. Seems to be a nice coin though, luster would be important to determine higher grades also (the only other reason for slabbing IMO).

All that being said - this coin has very strong steps and is a nice addition to a Jefferson collection.
