<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 3440655, member: 101855&quot;]I have a slight disagreement. Planchet marks do count if you are looking to get a grade of MS-65 or above. This is especially true for the coins that make MS-66 and above. Those coins need to have virtually perfect strikes with virtually no marks. There are entire issues of coins where NONE of the mintage would qualify You could be an angle that caught the coin the second it came off the dies, and it still would not be an MS-67 or better.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the lower Mint State grades, those marks do become less important, and if you are looking at some at less than MS-62, they don&#039;t matter at all unless they are severe.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
