[QUOTE="clembo, post: 316931, member: 8033"]Going to have to disagree with you wholeheartedly on that one Steve. A nice coin is a nice coin period. A coin struck at a later die state but with immaculate surfaces (not that this is immaculate just an example) should merit a much higher grade. By your reasoning and assuming you apply this to all series' a Jefferson Nickel from the 50s has little chance of ever going beyond MS65 for not having full steps, a Franklin half can't go higher for no FBL, Morgans can't go higher due to weak strikes that are known in many years. I may be going well beyond your intent here. For all I know it only applies to Mercury Dimes to you and rereading your post it seems that way. However, what about my other examples? Curious to your thoughts now and no disrespect intended. clembo Leadfoot, The luster is all there. clembo[/QUOTE]
