[QUOTE="Pickin and Grinin, post: 8570106, member: 73995"]I will get the reverses posted here soon. What I will remind everyone watching and reading is that these are a clad planchet and most of what you see is a planchet defects. These coins don't show the same luster as we are used to with the old designs, and each different reverse is going to cause weakness on the obverse in different areas. No matter how well the coin was struck. So, I guess what I am saying is that we have to almost forget roughness in the highest points of the design. Just focus on the contact and any abrasions in the luster. And above all the strike has to be full or near full to grade anywhere near 65. I like putting away rolls of newly released coins and try to only put the best ones away that I can find.[/QUOTE]
