THE 1960 Denver Jefferson in MS-67:

I came to the conclusion that trying to find complete fullsteps in this year would cost me
a fortune, so my best alternative would be to find one in the highest grade possible....

Here's a very low pop example that's in a MS-67 Grade, Certified by Ngc. As of July of 2012'
Only a dozen examples have reached this level, a great find an certainly fits in my collection.

Jaime Hernandez: The 1960-D Jefferson Nickel is the most difficult coin to find with the Full Steps designation from
1938 to 1964. As of 2010, PCGS has not graded any 1960-D Full Step Jefferson Nickels. Most 1960-D Jefferson
nickels tend to have lots of nicks and scratches that usually keep them from obtaining a higher grade. The reverse is also usually weakly struck. It is a very difficult coin to find in grades of MS66 and higher, with possibly less than 50
to 75 coins in existence...
