<p>[QUOTE="Owle, post: 1431116, member: 22004"]Somone told me that "53" was code for a coin with minor problems; others question whether AU53 should even exist as a grade. It does not look that bad to me, and you had three graders in a completely black dark room with the best lighting in the world and a finalizer who thought it was OK. So who is to judge? If it were a super rare coin you can be sure that puppy would have ended up in a details holder. There are plenty of "walking wounded" coins with various problems. Does the market discount them? You betcha![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
