<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rmpsrpms, post: 2858489, member: 31773&quot;]What they are saying is that luster is used to gauge business strike eye appeal, while reflectivity is used to gauge proof eye appeal. They are not saying that reflectivity can be used for business strikes, nor luster for proofs. This is what they mean by the word &quot;or&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s not just a differing point of view. You said:</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;You&#039;re talking about luster defined a certain way, and gdjmsp is defining it in a widely accepted way as far as this hobby is concerned, and as defined by the top grading services within the hobby.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>You made the claim that my definition was at odds with the rest of the numismatic hobby, but in fact it is the opposite. Mine is the mainstream definition, and my explanation of how luster is created is the accepted one. </p><p><br /></p><p>I challenge you to find any reference to the contrary, other than the posts in this thread.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
