<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kidkayt, post: 770214, member: 7275&quot;]You may try to get the coin under a microscope or a 5-10X loupe and scan it under incandescent light.&nbsp; If you tilt the coin the ticks, scratches, pits, and defects in general will scatter light right into your field of view at the right angle.&nbsp; Different grading companies have different standards. I would imagine that 1-2 very tiny defects in the fields and none on the devices would qualify it as a 70.&nbsp; Perhaps the experts in the forum would have a better opinion.&nbsp; However I do have coins from both PCGS and NGC which are graded 70 but have a significant number of defects on devices and fields, not to mention ASEs which have milk spots in 70 plastic.&nbsp; This may have to do with coins like the Presidential Proof dollars for example which are poor strikes on poor planchets to begin with and if they didn&#039;t give the odd 70 there would be none...?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
