<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 4473573, member: 66"]The 1922 no mintmark (Die pair 2) is graded by the reverse because the obverse die was completely worn out and the detail was worn out on the die. A MS-70 1922 no mintmark (if such a thing existed) would have mint luster, but would still only show the design detail of a G-VG coin on the obv. The rev die was a new one so the grade is determined by the amount of wear on the reverse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
