[QUOTE="Insider, post: 2517910, member: 24314"]See the post above with the hits on the letters? Trust me when I tell you that any professional grader SHOULD be able to see those as that coin is not a 70. There are also spots over the "ED." See if you can find four major spots on the obverse too. I'm already [COLOR=#ff00ff]down to MS-67[/COLOR]! As to your test. If given enough time, good light, a 5X hand lens, and instruction on how to properly examine a coin; ANYONE (especially those of the female persuasion as they are more attentive to detail) can tell if a coin is perfect. And that's the problem. The TPG's have picked the coin up, graded it with their naked eye, and moved on to the next coin faster than I typed this sentence! There ARE MS-70 SE's in MS-70 slabs but you need to look for them as much of the 70's out there in slabs ARE NOT! :([/QUOTE]
