MatthewDM11 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 I have been trying to find a 1945s FS for a while. This one obviously doesn’t have 6 full steps but it looks like it has 5. What are your thoughts? GoldFinger1969 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lem E Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 (edited) I think it has a pretty decent shot at 5FS. Can we see the whole coin? Edited July 19, 2022 by Lem E Henri Charriere 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is still in the mint set I got at an estate auction. I bought the set just for this coin 😂 Lem E and Henri Charriere 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henri Charriere Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Clear and convincing evidence. And I didn't even have to resort to using my prohibited 30-power loupe! That giant "S" beckons to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad I found your post. I am a school student and I am searching for information online related to edubirdie legal and while searching for it online, I am glad I found your post. I like it, I haven't seen it before. Edited July 28, 2022 by CherylGross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moxie15 Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 I would not accept that as five full steps. I admit that I am fussy when calling full steps, they must be clear with no bridges, dings, or fades. Your coin looks to have a bridge under the second column from the left. It is a nicecoin, just not full steps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henri Charriere Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 The problem as I see it is, not being a collector of the series with full access to the finest photographs taken of the best examples available, I have no point of reference. There are undoubtedly members intimately familiar with the series who have formally authenticated, certified, and granted this uncommon attribute on a number of occasions. My opinion is of no moment. Frankly, I would like to hear from a few more members--or trust my lying eyes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
