The 45-S Jefferson:
Trying to find one with a Quality Strike will require alot or searching. Most 45-S Jeffs' would't make a full-step designation, because these dates had alot of (bridges) between the Steps. Make sure when you buy one, double/ck
the step-area carefully. "Full-Step" coins in this date is not only a real-challenge, but finding sharp deep-steps, might require you buying another set of glasses!
