<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JPeace$, post: 2094132, member: 42727&quot;]The ANA grading standards book only has 60, 63, 65, 67 &amp; 70 listed for MS.&nbsp; That&#039;s why they don&#039;t reference 66!</p><p><br /></p><p>When judging the contact marks, start with the devices, then move to the fields.&nbsp; Also, at first, don&#039;t use any magnification.&nbsp; Hold the coin not quite at arms length and notice where your eye travels first.&nbsp; Often it will be to the distracting marks.&nbsp; Then hold the coin down by your abdomen on an angle and rotate it.&nbsp; See what kind of cartwheel luster is left on the coin.&nbsp; IMO, that&#039;s your starting point.&nbsp; Only get into the minutia after you have a general sense of the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
