Poll Question
When roll searching, do you save any of the Modern Jeffersons, 2006 and on, that have full steps?

I voted yes but so far most of them have full steps. For my set I try to have 6 full steps with no visible contact marks under light magnification.
The surface of the coin is tougher for problem free condition for the recent nickels. The strike and detail is not a problem.
I have put away BU rolls and duplicates of better singles.

Once again yes and I agree with wheezy.

I voted yes. I save one for my set and usually save 1 duplicate of each. I'm not big on bu rolls. Mid 90's and earlier I'll save all full steps.

I voted no since I seldom even look at the back of a Nickel. They all go into Albums and when I flip the pages I just never look at the rears of those. For all I know the ones in my Albums have no reverses at all.

I voted No ... modern MS Jefferson can be found with 6 full steps ... and I will set aside in rolls the MS67FS and better that I find.
The real treasure IMHO is FS Jefferson prior to 1987 ... I save every one of these that I find.

Due to hub modifications, 6 Full Step nickels have been readily available since the 1990s so there is really nothing special about the more recent ones.

I voted "no", since most every Ultra Modern Jefferson " has" full steps out there nowadays, as has been pointed out. I agree with Nickelsearcher about saving "FS" older ones though......whenever I come across nice BU's with FS ( or even without) I put those back for safekeeping. And I wouldn't say that I'm collecting "rolls" (or tubes) of Nickels, just for the sake of having or being a "roll collector". More-so, to have the nice examples put away for the future.The future " could" be selling....... it could be just for the mere satisfaction of what I've acquired and amassed with these........it could also be for making other albums.....it could also be to help family members/friends make their albums....and it could be just for my "inheritors" to enjoy and discover too. 40 years after I'm dead and gone.......it's hard to say now, what or which of my efforts will be "appreciated". ...

Only 2009's with full steps. Then again, I collect any 2009's I come across, full-step or not.

1990-1998 P&D Full Step nickels are listed at $25 ea., 1999-2001 P&D Full Step nickels are listed at $20 ea. Makes me think about those 2002 Full Step nickels. They are next in line for that $20 price tag. 1999 is also due for a price hike soon. Edited by KenRingold

Priced by who and at what grade? It is almost impossible to pull MS65+ gems out of circulated rolls and I am just not seeing average MS60-63 nickels bringing that kind of money.
