<p>[QUOTE="mumu, post: 1653573, member: 24620"]Yeah I am having a tough time. I dont want to think myself or anyone that isnt a grader knows better than a pro grader. But its not like theres an owners bias here. Both coins, and many others, were/are available to me or anyone else so I am obviously pickng the one I truly feel is the better one. I am not gonna lie in addition to liking it I feel the 63 I purchased has a shot 64. I also feel the luster is there for a 21. The consensus ATS agrees as does RWB that 21s dont luster like other years, ive known this for year so the YN who suggested luster is the issue along wiht a few others I think need to reconsider. Again this is via photographs and I know anything can happen in hand including hairlines which is my #1 concern now. But I would say that in 500-600 coin purchases I have made over the years I would confidently say that I have been surprised by less than 10 vs the pictures I looked at and maybe as few as 3. In fact I can only think of 2 off hand and one was an AU 55 Mexican Dos Pesos which had really bad photos and I knew was a gamble going in. I have very advanced photography software(No photoshop is not even close to high level software) that I run some filters on things when analyzing a coin and I am confident with my picture interpretations. But I will post again once the coin is in hand to see where things end up. In any case I enjoy the general conversations in regards to 21 Peace dollars, they truly are my favorite series and year. I almost feel that unlike other coins they are kinda undefined in a sense.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
