Full Step Jefferson Nickel Guide
I have written extensively here on the Coin Blog about collecting full step Jefferson nickels. Today, I wanted to point out an unbelievable full step Jefferson nickel guide on CoinTalk.
Lehigh96 from the CoinTalk forum has written a great guide to help us to understand what is a 6FS Jefferson nickel and a 5FS Jefferson nickel. Lehigh96 has taken photographs of Jefferson nickels from his coin collection and uses these coins to point out how the third party grading services grade Jefferson nickels when giving a full step Jefferson nickel.
You can read Lehigh96′s article here – The FS (Full Step) Designation for Jefferson Nickels.
If you would like to read my prior articles on full step Jefferson Nickels here are my recommendations.
- Jefferson Nickel Expert – This article is an interview with a Jefferson nickel expert, Bernard Orgovan. In this Jefferson nickel article, he describes in detail how to determine whether a Jefferson nickel is a Full Step Jefferson nickel.
- Full Step Jefferson Nickels
- Finding Full Step Jefferson Nickels
Again, I highly recommend that you check out Lehigh96′s great Jefferson nickel guide. Additionally, search around the CoinTalk forum for some of Lehigh96′s other posts. He has an unbelievable collection of toned coins. His toned coin collection has got me addicted to collecting toned coins. But, make sure you read his Full Step Jefferson Nickel Guide.

the most important unpublished (hidden) info I’ve ever seen… Looong overdue and commonly unknown to the colletor and highly valued and well hidden by the unscroupulous dealer or seller.
