<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1523781, member: 112&quot;]Think about what you are asking Guy. First of all what can keep a coin from being graded as MS ? There&#039;s only 2 things, one is wear and the other is if the coin is a problem coin. So if neither of those is true, then the coin is at least MS something. From there you take all of the other grading criteria into account and come up with a grade. </p><p><br /></p><p>Grading is composed of pluses and minuses. You give the coin points for good attributes and take away points for bad attributes. Rather obviously the fingerprints are a bad attribute, but if the coins other good points are good enough then the coin could be well worthy of a 64 grade. Perhaps if the prints were not there then the coin might have graded 65.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not saying it would have necessarily, I&#039;m not even agreeing that it is a 64, I&#039;m just explaining how it works.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
