<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 512715, member: 15199&quot;]Thanks to all!</p><p><br /></p><p>Ruben, your photo brings questions to part of mine. What magnification is necessary to designate Full band? As some gaps may be visible under 20X that aren&#039;t at 5X or 10X? </p><p><br /></p><p>I am not sure what magnification the TPG companies use for various size coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>I feel the thought is that the band must show a absolutely complete groove with no interruption or ding on the groove.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks Doug, I had read that thread and was part of my interest to teach myself to evaluate split bands.&nbsp; I have a roll I will go through to see if I can make myself more accurate. Photos in many guides are not well presented, and as you mention, different TPGs do use different criteria.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for taking the time to help me learn,:high5:</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
