<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1227373, member: 26302&quot;]I was surprised a little that you thought netiher were VF understrict standards. I consider myself fairly strict, but thought coin two, when all things are balanced, was quite easily a gVF. I simply do not often see middle silver better struck than that. You are completely right that any one or any two items can never be taken as absolute, but even in US grading this is not true though they throw that out for new collectors to &quot;get the idea&quot; of the level of preservation they are talking about. Mechanically struck coins are fairly easy to grade in comparison to these.</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, I thought you had a ringer in there somewhere. I noticed the marks below the bust but without collecting these did not know any significance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
