<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 316540, member: 112&quot;]Well Mike, that&#039;s where we differ. And that&#039;s one of the flaws with technical graqding in my opinion. For if a coin is to be considered as gem quality, then I would say that it needs to be almost fully struck. And according to PCGS&#039;s own standards it needs to be almost fully struck. And that&#039;s why I think they screwed up on this coin - it isn&#039;t.</p><p><br /></p><p>So ya see, many folks would look at this coin and think that it was overgraded because of market grading. But in this case, market grading actually holds the grade down because of the poor strike quality. Technical grading does not take strike quality into account.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
