<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Arizona Jack, post: 490388, member: 9308&quot;]On uncirculated coins I do... I wil not grade a MS-65 if weakly struck. Circ&#039;s? A different story, I&#039;ll take strike into factor.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There is no fully struck requirement for a VF-35, although I&#039;ll tend to net a grade if the strike is poor, even horrible. You cannot sell me an VF 24-D if there are no wheats left. I wont grade a 1917 XF if not a sharp coin.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Mid 20&#039;s circs? , I&#039;ll work with you. To call any coin GEM, it must be fully struck, thats what makes those 50 P mints so tough, and those 20&#039;s branch mints so elusive.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There are no GEM circ grades. Gem in my world means red and uncirculated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
