<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pickin and Grinin, post: 3076860, member: 73995&quot;]My simple opinion is with [USER=43130]@C-B-D[/USER] and [USER=72642]@okbustchaser[/USER] </p><p>All the things that have been pointed out above, can be construed negative towards the eye appeal of a coin- definitely to the collector who is a purest. But, these type of coins do happen at the mint, they leave the mint, and there are collectors out there that do not believe they detract from the eye appeal of the coin, and that simply leaves us with &quot;beauty is in the eye of the beholder&quot;. What the graders and TPG&#039;s job is to grade the coin upon it&#039;s merits or lack of.</p><p><br /></p><p>To say that a coin with a die crack that is every bit worth the grade of gem 65+ should only be a 63 or 64 is ridiculous to me. The coin is as struck because the mint continued to use a worn out die.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
