The thing is, the state/condition of the planchet shouldn&#039;t make any difference when it comes to designating the coin as a problem coin. Even if the planchet was corroded before striking it&#039;s still a problem coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>Ya see, a corroded planchet is a defective planchet. And planchet defect is one of the reasons the TPGs list for problem coin designations.</p><p><br /></p><p><i>93|N-3 Planchet Flaw - Metal impurity or defect in the planchet – </i></p><p><i>depends on severity</i></p><p><br /></p><p>That said, the TPGs don&#039;t even follow their own rules. If a coin is scarce enough, valuable enough, has a certain pedigree, or is popular enough - they simply choose to ignore their own rules and give clean grades to coins that don&#039;t deserve clean grades - based on their own rules !</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>So Randy, you keep right doing what you&#039;re doing buddy and forget what others think.
