<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1067690, member: 112&quot;]What&#039;s wrong with is this - you have to judge each date/mint on its own merits because of different minting techniques used by the different mints at various points in time. Example - Morgans, an 1889-O as compared to an 1881-S. Pretty much every known example of the &#039;89-O is known to be very weakly struck while every example of the &#039;81-S is known to be very well struck.</p><p><br /></p><p>So how can you possibly compare one to the other when it comes to grading ? You have to base your grade on known individual date/mint characteristics. Even the ANA says this and always has.</p><p><br /></p><p>Since day one of the concept of grading a coin this is how it has been and for the same reason.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
