[QUOTE="torontokuba, post: 2016628, member: 56793"]You forgot to present the tiny air pockets and grease pockets that hide between the die and coin surface when the die strikes the planchet.;):p Subjective opinions about what full luster and wear is, are up for interpretation in this interpretive grading form of art. Some people have more flexible personalities, others more rigid. So far, all innocent bystanders and the TPGs do not see an AU coin when presented with an MS67. Maybe they are just more realistic, have more experience at being open-minded and flexible and just want to be able to utilize the Sheldon Scale to the max. I once asked GDJMSP to show me his approved version of a specific coin in MS65 or MS66. To this day I have no answer, most likely doesn't exist because it would have to be graded at MS71 in the real world.
