Owner's Description

When collectors talk about Jefferson nickels with a Gold Colored Tone to them, I keep thinking of my 1940 Denver.
A nice sharply struck nickel. Bernard Nagengast mentioned in his book that 20% of 1940 Jeffersons have full steps.
In my opinion, NGC is the most conservative than any other grading service when it comes to grading fullsteps.
"Eye Appeal with a Quality Strike" sure standout on both sides of this coin.
