<p>[QUOTE="rooman9, post: 2179155, member: 73048"]I'm talking about mint coins here, not proofs. Lets say you have a nice merc or walking liberty that would grade around MS-63-64. But it has a fingerprint on it. Do the graders take that into account and mark it down? Or do they just focus mostly on the details and striking? I've always been curious about that. I know that nice toning sometimes bumps up a coin so does it work vice-versa?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
