Quality of luster, another as struck quality, and it definitely counts for or against a coins grade. Being weakly struck, and yeah it&#039;s different than quality of strike, and is an as struck quality, and it definitely counts for or against a coins grade. Strikethroughs, another as struck quality, and another that definitely counts against a coins grade. Planchet quality, another as struck thing, yet it counts for or against a coins grade. Being well centered or not, another as struck quality, that definitely counts for or against a coins grade. The list goes on. All of these things can be flaws, and when present they all count against the coins grade when the coins are graded by anybody, including the TPGs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Die cracks - also as struck, and also flaws. So how, and why, could they possibly NOT count against a coins grade ?</p><p><br /></p><p>Flaws are flaws, it doesn&#039;t matter what they are or how they got there. The only that matters is that they are there ! and if they are there, then they count against the coins grade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
