Experienced graders being first exposed to grading from high-res imagery are consistently a couple points low, until they realize the unfair attention it draws to what would be less-significant features in-hand. The first image is digital imagery at its&#039; harshest; the second is likely much closer to what a grader would see in hand.</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin strikes me as an &quot;average&quot; 64; dunno if it would Bean.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
