Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2577950, member: 112"]Ya think ? I submit to you, all of you, that it is far, far, more likely for a coin to have very equal wear on all of the high points, than it is for it to be some strike anomaly. And to back that up here's a picture of one. [ATTACH=full]559083[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]559084[/ATTACH] Equal, even wear on every single high point on the coin, both obv and rev ! And to approximately the same degree as the Morgan ! So it does happen, and it happens far more often than some of you guys seem to be thinking. People post pictures of them here on a fairly regular basis - they call them pocket pieces. And the thing about it is that pocket pieces pieces achieve wear in exactly the same ways that coins in circulation achieve wear - by rubbing against things. So yes, equal wear on all the high points is NORMAL ! Each and every one of you has seen it a million times, on just about any VF or lower grade coin ! Now, all of that said, how then is the PCGS UNC notation explained ? Very simply, mechanical error.[/QUOTE]
