<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 8296014, member: 24314&quot;]Easy.&nbsp; In the images there is a change of color on the cheek and an arc in the hair.&nbsp; These are places where the first trace of friction show on these coins.&nbsp; At this time, most dealers ignore that strict interpretation of MS.&nbsp; So... for numismatists who are conservative about the choices they make, AU-58.&nbsp; Next, I&#039;ll guarantee some folks would consider this AT = &quot;details.&quot;&nbsp; No worry, the #2 TPGS has considered its color OK or &quot;market acceptable.&quot;&nbsp; Next, the strike is not full.&nbsp; That no longer matters to some because one requirement for a 65 grade (full strike) went out the window at least a decade ago possibly because coins from some mints rarely come with a strong strike.&nbsp; The eye appeal of your coin is a matter of personal taste.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, there was no intelligent way to comment on the coin w/o knowing the assigned grade.&nbsp; Suppose it was in a MS-67 slab. What keeps it form grading higher?&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Bottom line.&nbsp; You got a coin you like a lot at a very good price!&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
