[QUOTE="treylxapi47, post: 1888066, member: 41863"]I understood everything you said Tom, but my main problem is that when I have been noticing extensive hairlines, it generally seems to be more abundant on the open fields and not so much on the main design element. I cant stand the look of a beautiful coin that has nice luster in hidden device areas, but then it has tons of hairlines on the open fields and next to nothing (for hairlines) on say the barber face or across a seated liberty. I just cant wrap my mind how it can blatantly appear to be mechanically cleaned and yet still grade. In my mind circulation should be completely random from random handling. I dont expect to really see heavy hairlines in the field but the same amount absent from the design. Just makes me not trust the TPG, especially when you see a truly original XF-40 thru AU-55[/QUOTE]
