[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 323869, member: 2972"]You and I define "flat" quite differently, I suppose. This is a coin with hair worn flat: [url]http://coins.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=26121&Lot_No=11735#photo[/url] We also disagree on the difference between a lack of luster and true wear, and on the definition of the word "considerable" and "slight". That's part of the challenge as these terms are entirely subjective to begin with. All that said, please show me a slabbed XF 45 with this much detail and luster, much less a VF one -- and I think you'll be hard pressed to find one, but if I'm following you that's part of your point.... Then again, maybe we're just both reading what we want to read and seeing what we want to see. ;) Respectfully...Mike[/QUOTE]
