Coin A could look much better than coin B on the basis of visible hits, but when you turn them under a light, coin B&#039;s luster would knock coin A out of the running immediately. Or not, but you won&#039;t be able to tell from photos.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, for those of us who don&#039;t care to start clicking through links without having some idea of what we&#039;ll be seeing, these are all MS64 St. Gaudens pieces, varying dates.</p><p><br /></p><p>One small, non-grade-related point: when I finally get around to buying a St. Gaudens type piece, I&#039;ll probably look for one with a mint mark, just because of the unusual above-the-date placement.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
