<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 5175463, member: 19463"]I will be interested in the verdict. On average, I tend to be harder on strike but easier on scratches than the NGC pro's. I am a little surprised that the obverse of your coin has as much detail as it does and that the legends are not more flat on one side or the other if I am right about the strike being responsible for the body and Victory. Still, I do not believe the letter/number grades are important but what counts is whether the coin is one I would welcome into the collection. It most certainly is. Of course that Venus face would make it a winner no matter what other issues it might have.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
