<p>[QUOTE="Mainebill, post: 2457840, member: 44004"]Eye appeal is subjective and while personally I don't care for blast white with the exception of occasionally a frosty or pl Morgan dollar I do love color. I've seen coins that were clean as can be ms 65 that are plain ugly. Either the surfaces or the luster or the toning are just plain lacking. I've seen low ms or au coins with great toning that were so baggy or marked up they were totally unappealing I love original gray circulated silver too and much of it is beautiful and much is not. I buy coins on eye appeal. And ice seen so many times where an attractive coin has got the bump from 63-64 or au 58-62. And I've seen way too many problem coins get net straight graded too. I've seen plenty of cleaned au coins in xf 40-45 holders or ugly ms coins in a 58 holder I think what I want most from the tpgs is consistency. Some times they're passing crap left and right. Others they're brutal and a grade or two low on nearly every coin in a submission. Either stay loose stay tough or somewhere in the middle and hold to those standards[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
