Ah, I see that they've corrected the article. (When I copied and pasted that quote, it did say "10th anniversary".)
Hey, I already put in my 25 years as a student. :) The Sheldon and Guth scales both say that the presence of any "wear" makes a coin of "lesser...
Welp, there it is. AU58 is "lesser quality", and "GS80" (née MS60) is "greater quality". The Guth Grading Scale[SM]: leading the way -- in the...
Well? We're waiting... :)
What happens in the new scale between 58 and 80? Will we have AU-50 through AU-79? Or is he trying to say that not only is an MS-60 coin better...

Since the poster in question was "last seen" right at the time of that last post, I'm assuming he hasn't had an opportunity to realize his mistake...
Yep. Look at the reverse: it's flattened, where the flat jaw pressed against the coin. The coin that was pressed into the obverse left a mirrored...
