This is the same way on the obverse (stars, drapery, etc.). When such a disparity exists, it can generally be assumed to be weakly struck.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, the head of the eagle has a somewhat rounded appearance on the edges, which is indicative of a weak strike</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Well, if you show someone the obverse of an MS-68 morgan and they say VG, I think we can all say that VG grade is stupid.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>PCGS Photograde is essentially useless for CBHs.
