<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Owle, post: 1373558, member: 22004&quot;]Thanks Doug for that.&nbsp; You have been tireless as an excellent moderator on this board!</p><p><br /></p><p>My solution on how this issue could be resolved would be to examine a couple hundred AU50, 53, and 55 coins from various series and see if the 53 fits into a definite quality continuum or could be replaced.</p><p><br /></p><p>For examples, possibly the $20 Liberty series could be selected.&nbsp; Heritage has many of those in various dates.&nbsp; To me a &quot;53&quot; is like a 50 that has some additional luster, less marks, less friction, etc..</p><p><br /></p><p>Here are some examples:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1166&amp;lotNo=6621" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1166&amp;lotNo=6621" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1166&amp;lotNo=6621</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1153&amp;lotNo=4896" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1153&amp;lotNo=4896" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1153&amp;lotNo=4896</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1154&amp;lotNo=6769" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1154&amp;lotNo=6769" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1154&amp;lotNo=6769</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1154&amp;lotNo=6768" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1154&amp;lotNo=6768" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1154&amp;lotNo=6768</a></p><p><br /></p><p>And 50s:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1158&amp;lotNo=5782" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1158&amp;lotNo=5782" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1158&amp;lotNo=5782</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1128&amp;lotNo=2662" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1128&amp;lotNo=2662" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1128&amp;lotNo=2662</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1151&amp;lotNo=7202" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1151&amp;lotNo=7202" rel="nofollow">http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=1151&amp;lotNo=7202</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Clearly there are some undergraded coins.&nbsp; People do not want to re-submit if they have a choice; shipping, in grading for a month, the arrival back hopefully with an upgrade and then the auction or selling process...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
