Owner Comments:

This is the double-eye variety which has a very nice strike consistant with the grade. Combine this with booming luster peering out from variegated toning plus six steps and you have this coin. The double eye is described by Bernard Nagengast in his 2002 book "The Jefferson Nickel Analyst" as 'Somewhat scarce in uncirculated,though many may remain to be discovered in unsearched rolls. The five step frequency of appearance is 1:20, with six step coins being unverified.'

Skip forward 10 years to June, 2012 and NGC has graded 10 6FS. 1-MS63, 1-MS64, 4-MS65, and finally 4-MS66.
