<p>[QUOTE="SuperDave, post: 2451489, member: 1892"]I've always thought 53 to be a "copout grade" similar to 58 - in many cases, the TPG's just don't want to exert the time and effort to factor strike, die state and external influences into the quality of the coin they're looking at. Not that those honest grades don't exist, just that too many examples deserve other/better grades.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
