<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dimeguy, post: 24647412, member: 19855&quot;]This is where I am at, and I&#039;ll admit I am by no means a professional for such things. Usually on these GTG posts, I come within 1 or 2 and go about my day. I don&#039;t feel the need to beat a dead horse on why a coin grades as it does, and in part, I don&#039;t feel professional enough to warrant an opinion. On this one, I was way off. Based on the original photo, I had such a hard time seeing the luster through the toning. Being as such, I was guessing AU or low MS. I didn&#039;t see the typical wear patterns on any of the devices, making me initially think MS, but still, I did not see what I would recognize as luster. Now the second photos, seemed much better for showing that grading detail than the first. I guess what I want to know and discuss, and this may not be the thread for it, when the toning is rather heavy, how do you see the trees among the forest for looking at luster and device details? Just practice? This for one, is why I usually go for the &quot;white&quot; version if I am buying uncirculated for the set.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
