Couple more pictures

I was wondering if this will also be classified as Wheel Marks?  I am looking for 6 Full Steps here, but you can notice slight marks on the reverse. 

There is also slight die cracks. I don't know if they are because of die deterioration the cracks are less visible or because they are the beginning of the die cracking. If any of what I just  said makes any sense.

Any chance this is die polish or planchet flaw? The lines around T in Trust appear to be raised and the T minted over them.

No, I looked really hard, they are wheel marks,  such a beautiful coin, and My second with wheel marks. 

Here are some more pictures from different angles. Some may be a little blurry. I was also looking for FS but that Die Crack flows into the steps. 

You can also notice some doubling on Jefferson's bow on the pony tail 

I wonder if ANAC would give me A die crack designation without the Wheel Mark comment. What do you think @VKurtB ?

 Any signs of die polishing on the details?  

I see no signs of die polishing but I will take photos at different angles, maybe you can spot something I cannot.

die crack, not break,

Ok, thanks, I get both terms confused sometimes. 

It's been awhile since I said I would post more of the Nickels. This one I believe it would be Graded as OBVERSE WHEEL MARK again like my last submission, not to mention it would not grade as Fulls Steps. I am wondering if that line across Monticello would be a die break. I also Just noticed the die crack on Jefferson's hair. 

@CRAWTOMATIC Tell me I was able to stop the wheel mark on this one. 

Nice Find. 

I have a W quarter that I found in my change in a 2X2 coin flip. it is not in the best shape but I'm keeping it as is.

Of course they do, they have to

I don't see why they have to? But we can sit here all day discussing it why and why not. . Bottom line something has to be done to lower the cost of healthcare. Not saying Health care for all but, something so everyone can afford their own healthcare. 

BTW, I work in healthcare and I have stories.

I would like to start by saying thank you for all the help this year and wish everyone a Happy New year.

Next I would like to say that newbie forum gets ask a lot of things by people that are just getting into coins.

Some people don't seem to think that person ask the right ?s. so I thought of a deferent example: 

Someone wakes up and finds a lump on there head, they can do one of four thing.

Check with a some expert (Dr.) And get advice

Watch a U - tube show

research everywhere a topic they know nothing about

or just leave it go.

I for one ask the expert. Even though he has seen it 1000 time is the first time for me.  So this bump was just from me hitting my head. the next lump may be something else, So the expert tells me Don't come here with a bump that could really be something just look it up.

that is the same with coins that a little thing on a coin could make a lot of difference.l

don't get discouraged Keep asking questions, someone will have the answers. 

That is why you are here, because you know YouTubers don't know squat and seek professional help. I love it here.

I was ridiculed as "weak" when I did anything nice for anyone.

Yeah, I heard the same words growing up. But I was also taught, respect yourself, show respect and respect is earned not given. Show respect once and if it is not returned duck 'em.

Yes, and my upbringing has collided with a stroke some 10 years ago that made me even less tolerant for things I do not agree with. It's maybe 3/4 upbringing and 1/4 medical, but it sure didn't help. My hemorrhage was "supposed to" kill me, but instead it altered my personality and stoked my own sense of personal defiance, in this case, of the odds of survival. I have received Last Rites ten years ago, and I'm not even Catholic, but the priest gave them because no one knew my religion and "it can't hurt".

Glad you survived the storke, Lucky !  

I guess  it makes no difference point out how rude you are, you grumpy old man.

I was going to suggest a disclaimer on your profile but you have one already. hahaha.

(Or British Alphabet 10p in the U.K.)

I was going to say that the British Alphabet interest me more that the W quarters. I should Research them more. I only have one UK coin stumbled upon it in a lot. I would have to dig it out to show you but I won't. maybe when I stumble upon it while looking for something else.

to "GET KINDA RICH QUICK" in modern coins, the best way they could do that is to CRH for W quarters.

Not my cup of tea unless it will be worth millions.  for 10K not worth my time. IMO

Well, what I can tell you is no one ever taught me to be anything other than "right"

does not mean you are always right. 

as for being blunt, I too am blunt and care less for political correctness. but there is blunt and there is plain disrespectful. you can be both. Hence why I say you are condescending. You are right which makes you think that you can be rude. Just calling it like I see them. 

I do get your humor. makes me chuckle and at times it makes but most of the time you are just grumpy. reminds me of my two neighbors. god res them. Both stubborn, always bickering with each other, and both hilarious when they tell me their stories. I miss them.

One of the oddest things I've observed is CRH'ers who are disappointed when they get solid BU rolls at a bank. That's my nirvana!

I get those all the time and set some aside, untouched, and unload the rest on Ebay. If you are willing to pay premium for them I am willing to ship   . However,I do not sit there and hunt for W quarters. I wait for them in my change. like most of my collector coins. I do it for the history. not to seek perfect, because if every coin out there is perfect, none are perfect. My kids go nuts when they get change with their purchase.they look for that special looking coin, The lucky coin as they call it. and save it in their album. Just last week, my son found a 1903 indian head which I think is at least a AU 50. (will post pics when I get a chance), he was thrilled about it.  that is what floats my boat, an opportunity to teach them about history.   

I am trying to keep my mouth shut all this time. 

While I respect @VKurtB Coin knowledge, I can do without his condescending ways. For a generation that has taught us to respec, it disappoints me to see such a lack of reciprocal affection towards current and all generations. 

I apologise if this offends anyone. (also apologize if my apology offends anyone). *See what I did there?*

it's that you don't have the right QUESTIONS

To quote a current book I am reading. "You Only Get Answers To the Questions You Ask" - John C. Maxwell.

Honestly, how do we expect for newbies to learn if they don't ask? they may not like the answers but they are seeking knowledge. Furthermore, Since they are new, they are not aware of the format they need to ask. I was new once, well, still am but I have learned to ask better quality questions that kind of align to what Yall' seeking.(I think and I hope if not please let me know) . 

Good day! 

What did I miss? I know I have absent for a few days and @KarenHolcomb leaves

Looks like it was polished at one time and has since retoned.

I was thinking that, it might have been polished.

The only way to legitimize a coin for widespread potential sale is to get it professionally graded.  Submit your coin to NGC or PCGS if you're confident it's real. 

I agree, this going back and forth is not going to solve anything. Why not submit and get it legitimized. I would
