<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Volodya, post: 4146044, member: 19615&quot;]Yes, exactly. Well said. I would add that, properly speaking, FDC isn&#039;t a grade at all. How could it be, when a large majority of ancient coins were <b>never </b>FDC, not even five minutes after they were struck? The only quibble I might have with your comment is the mention of &quot;ho-hum reverse style.&quot; IMO, it&#039;s not a given that &quot;best style&quot; or something like that is a necessary component of a correct FDC designation. I think it needs discussion.&nbsp; I would argue that style <i>isn&#039;t </i>a requisite element of FDC, although I suspect I&#039;m in a minority here.</p><p><br /></p><p>Phil Davis[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
