I think the nickel will come back as a 66, maybe a 67, no cameo. Here's another pic to help. Frosty white....and when you rotate it you can get those glass like features. And I researched this nickel for a good minute before submitting. What I discovered was I smoke!!!! The top dog I mean smoke the dude on the Reverse side. He doesn't have Full-Steps, I do, he has die buffing in the field areas, so, is a 66 possible, yes, but so is a 68, if I'm going off of what has been submitted of course.

A 68 would be great and the ONLY REASON I GIVE IT a low 68 is because the Reverse side on my Nickel matches or is a little better than what PCGS has listed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with Bob and it has a hard hit on the steps not sure if it will pass as FS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point Woods. TPG have FS listings for 65,66,and 67 so that would be regular strike coins. We know they do not FS proofs and a SMS is not a proof but the TPG may grade the FS and FB as that way on a SMS coins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
