<p>[QUOTE=&quot;900fine, post: 392719, member: 6036&quot;]I have a problem with these standards.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A coin gets a 70 if it has no &quot;post-production imperfections&quot; ? I disagree. That means coins with mint-made spots would be 70. Well, they aren&#039;t in my book.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It also means that all coins still in mint packaging should be 70s, because &quot;production&quot; should include the packaging process ! (This assumes they haven&#039;t been messed up after they left the mint, which is most of them.)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The grade of 70 should require <b>all aspects of the coin be perfect</b> at 5x, including the minting process. If it has any problems, for whatever reason, regardless of when they happened or who made &#039;em happen, it can&#039;t be a 70.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>At least PCGS knocks down the grade for imperfect strike (mint imperfection, not post production).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
