<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 31704, member: 112"]But that's not true - coins from each year and from each mint are graded differently. You can't compare or grade a '65 Kennedy the same way you do a '69 Kennedy. ('69 was a terrible year for Kenndy halves - they were all very weakly struck.) That would be like trying a grade an 1879-S Morgan the same way you would an 1884-O - it simply can't be done.</p><p><br /></p><p>So - when you grade both coins - they can easily be the same grade but look entirely different.</p><p><br /></p><p>And what I see isn't toning - I see spots.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
