And your statement on grading vf-20 to vf-35 is right on, the Sheldon scale in my opinion was conceived so rich coin collectors and dealers could get richer.&nbsp; As for the MS grades, there is no difference in my opinion between a coin that is MS-69 and a coin that is MS-70 the MS grades are just an opinion of the person grading the coin. However the coin media and dealers have&nbsp; convinced collectors that there is this big premium between the two grades. It is my opinion there is no such thing as a perfect coin and if someone&nbsp; grading a coin says a coin is perfect because it is a MS-70 and that person wants to through his money away then so be it, I for one do not want that hook in my mouth at least that is the way it seems to me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bruce.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
