<p>[QUOTE="physics-fan3.14, post: 2025495, member: 19165"]I'll be honest, the picture shows a G4 coin if you grade it strictly. G6 would be acceptable (as PCGS calls it), but I can't see it any higher than that. I might be willing to pay more, but lets call a spade a spade and then haggle over price. </p><p><br /></p><p>I know a lot of specialists like to claim that strike variations due to the different die marriages must be considered. I myself am a student of the Capped Bust series. However, when we are talking about grades this low, the differences in character due to die marriage become irrelevant - the amount of detail shows a G coin, and that's it. For me personally, hashing things out below EF just doesn't make sense. It doesn't matter that, even in UNC, the coin is missing half its detail. Once its circulated, the coin can completely bypass EF and VF and go straight to an F coin - if that is how much detail remains, then that is the grade the coin gets.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
