MatthewDM11 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 I want to submit some nickels with FS but I do not know if NGC will automatically grade them FS or if FS is a designation that cost extra like variety plus. GoldFinger1969 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkFeld Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 The designation, if merited, shouldn't require a “variety plus” submission. GoldFinger1969 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lem E Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 You may or may not already know this but the FS designation is only given to business strike coins. Proof coins will not receive the designation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member: Seasoned Veteran DWLange Posted July 10 Member: Seasoned Veteran Share Posted July 10 The graders looks for strike characters such as 5FS, FB, PL, etc. automatically when grading raw coins, and there is no extra charge. If you have a coin already certified by NGC, then you would have to get it regraded when seeking such add ons.

RWB Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 "Does NGC automatically grade FS (full steps) on nickels...?" Not usually on Buffalo nickels, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I needed to improve my grades I often used a service https://essays.edubirdie.com/buy-dissertations for students where you can buy a dissertation. It helped me a lot to save time and improve the quality of learning. Thank you so much, I didn't know about that!
