<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikenoodle, post: 494227, member: 307&quot;]oh, and by the way... I do understand what the laundry list of authors you mentioned say. You judge each coin by it&#039;s date and mint. You look at a coin and say, &quot;well for an 1893-CC, it&#039;s a really great strike, even though it&#039;s not sharply struck. For what it is, it&#039;s a gem.&quot; I get that whole idea, it is very specific to each coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was talking about thinking of coins across a series instead, and the inplications or grading it as such. If you want to point out the pitfalls, then go ahead, but I&#039;d rather for the purposes of our discussion that you do that rather thantell me that that&#039;s not the way it is. I know the way it is, and I am trying to think in a different way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
