<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 4531170, member: 19463"]I find it interesting that the 1962 coin was graded Fine which seems correct by older standards. I do not recall seeing many rough coins in the earlier period of my hobby. I expected good surfaces unless noted in unillustrated lists but today we get photos of every coin and leave it up to the buyer to see the problems.
