<p>[QUOTE="brg5658, post: 1320229, member: 29751"]If you want to read a condensed version of my reply above, some of the 69's started "showing up" because of the sheer number of submitted/graded coins. The 2005 Satin Finish coins were submitted in numbers about 10 times higher than 2004 issues across all series. If you submit 10 times more coins, you get 10 times more MS69s <i>ceteris paribus</i>. Combine that with the fact that among the many "terrible" quality coins, there were some truly exceptional coins, nothing like the business strikes of years past. Having seen hundreds of SF coins, the well struck ones are truly heads above any business strike or mint set strike coins from 2004 or before. Of course, the "terrible" ones aren't getting sent in for grading by anyone with a brain. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
