[QUOTE="Max, post: 145975, member: 6004"]In many places where I've read about grading coins... They told about MS-70 that it was "theoretical perfection". Meaning that it was in the first uses of the die, with perfectly calibrated cylinders, with especially high pressure (therefore slow motion) on the dies... Blah blah.. And that the coin was picked with gloves directly from the press and was put in an airtite holder so that there would be no trace of other coins hitting it, or even the bag in which one it would be stored... They say, therefore, that MS-70 is never used... or maybe almost never used.

Well, I guess.. and hope so.. :hail: Max[/QUOTE]
