<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 146258, member: 3011&quot;]I recall reading someplace, I don&#039;t recall the source, that the 70 grade was for coins with no contact marks or scratches visible under 4X magnification.&nbsp; All of this stuff about using microscopes makes me wonder what the goals are for some people collecting and paying huge premiums for this stuff.&nbsp; I don&#039;t own any 70s -- I&#039;m not willing to pay up for it.&nbsp; I own a few 69 graded gold coins, but for the life of me I don&#039;t see any substantial difference between them and the 66s.&nbsp; Sometimes you can get three 66s for the price of one 70 and at some level of quality, quantity becomes more important than quality.&nbsp; I just can&#039;t bring myself to play and pay for the game of &quot;my coin is better than your coin.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
