<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tight wad, post: 415332, member: 15116&quot;]I have a BiCentennial Kennedy half that appears to the naked eye to be prefect and unblemished. It has that glow that a newly minted coin has. However, under a 10X glass, it shows discereble bag marks on Kennedy&#039;s cheek. The reverse maginfied, also shows hairline contacts,but even less than the obverse. Question: MS60,MS63,MS65...these all seem pretty darn close in definition. Given just my explaination (as I&#039;m lousy at pics) which does this coin sound like to you?</p><p>&nbsp;And also, I would like to ask, re: MS65. How can a coin be &quot;uncirculated&quot; and have &quot;very few CONTACT&nbsp; marks on the surface or rim&quot;. Shouldn&#039;t it have no contact marks if it&#039;s uncirculated?</p><p>&nbsp; I sure wish one of you guys were here in person to show me how you grade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
