[QUOTE="Julius Germanicus, post: 2856847, member: 80783"]Should wear not lead to a convex shape eventually? It would look more suspicious if the center of the reverse was worn off more than the legend which is closer to the edges, I guess :-). Could´t the stronger detail on the obverse be due to the both sides having enjoyed different wear or corrosion over time? There are lots of coins that have higher relief on the reverse but those that ended up with a better obverse are those who get more demand and we find them in dealer´s catalogues. Yes. May I ask how many coins you sent there yet and which coin value is the lowest where you find the extra cost useful? And have you noticed that Sear seems to write just one certificate per day? Looks like thorough work to me :-)[/QUOTE]
