<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Phoenix21, post: 306144, member: 7424&quot;]Are you asking a question, or do you already know the answer? Some coins don&#039;t need there natural mint luster to be mint state, such as some lincoln cents, buffalo nickels, and some other coins. Where areas luster is a thing to look for, it doesn&#039;t have to be there that I know of for a coin to be mint state. Now if it is unnaturally gone, removed by harsh cleaning or so, NGC nor PCGS will slab them, because then they are problem coins, and in there opinion, ungradable. Does any of this answer your question? There is I am wrong in some things I have said, and in that case it won&#039;t be long till someone will come along and corrects me, and all. If you don&#039;t mind me asking, what prompted this question, did you see some coins without mint luster that are slabbed?</p><p><br /></p><p>Phoenix <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie6" alt=":cool:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
