<p>[QUOTE=&quot;National dealer, post: 21942, member: 487&quot;]When attempting to understand the monster grades of 69 and 70 it boils down to a slightly different system. Not only is strike and condition major factors, but also what the Mint intended. If the die has any flaw in it, the coin will not grade at 69 or 70. </p><p>As to the ratio, it is very slim indeed for either grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>The fact that 70 commands a premium is based on the fact that people like owning something that is perfect by any standard. </p><p><br /></p><p>While 99.9% of the people cannot spot the difference, it is more an ego thing than anything else. </p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I have not been able to see the difference between any of the true monster grades. The speck between 67 and 70 are not enough for this man to notice.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
