<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 2756719, member: 15309&quot;]I appreciate the insight into your opinions on the coin, but with respect, you didn&#039;t give me what I asked for.&nbsp; I want a numerical grade for each element of grading.&nbsp; So far, you have given me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Surface Preservation:&nbsp; MS65</p><p>Luster:&nbsp; ?</p><p>Strike:&nbsp; ?</p><p>Eye Appeal:&nbsp; ?</p><p><br /></p><p>A few comments though about your analysis.&nbsp; I agree that the luster is indeterminable from the photos.&nbsp; Given the assigned grade, one would assume that the luster be fantastic, yet the Heritage description calls it &quot;satiny&quot; which does not bode well in my experience.&nbsp; As for the eye appeal, I have noted earlier that the pastel toning found on this coin simply doesn&#039;t exist on many Washington Quarters.&nbsp; What you are calling splotchy toning is much less pronounced in the slab shots.&nbsp; I&#039;m guessing that, in hand, the luster will highlight the pastel hues and minimize the brown splotches.&nbsp; For the record, I knocked my eye appeal grade down from MS68 to MS67 specifically because all of the griping in this thread about the splotchy toning.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now, if you please, provide me with your grades sir.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
