[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3086368, member: 10461"]Thanks. Maybe I've spent just a [I]few[/I] too many years around people who obsess over the minute difference between a 66 and a 67 on the label of a plastic slab (to the point where they then began obsessing so [I]much[/I] that someone created a company to [I]grade the grading[/I] and add [I]stickers[/I] to the slabs. Now I'm waiting for someone to add stickers to the stickers, thereby [I]third[/I]-guessing the second-guessers.) Where was I? [S][SIZE=3]Off on another rambling tangent, that's where.[/SIZE][/S] Oh, yeah. So anyway, what I was getting at was that after spending so much time with nitpicky numismatic perfectionists, I once might not have understood what you meant about "[I]just the right amount of wear[/I]". But I do. I totally do. That's definitely a thing. I think your avatar is another example of that.[/QUOTE]
