<p>[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 7173097, member: 13307"]Well, one thing you might consider is that coin photography (or, lighting) often accentuates even the tiniest of marks/rubs/dings. I've got coins where the images show a HUGE ding in a high focal point area...and in hand you could only really see that mark if all the planets were aligned properly. Grading from pictures is hard! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I feel a little better/more confident with my initial guess at AU53 as well now, haha...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
