<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 3525369, member: 46237&quot;]You didn&#039;t answer my question.</p><p><br /></p><p>My question was not one asking you if you knew the difference between very light high point rub and a hit.

I understand what the difference is between them, despite your assumption that anyone who disagrees with you does so out of ignorance. I understand how it is graded. I just happen to disagree.</p><p><br /></p><p>Penalize coins based on the severity of their surface conditions, whatever they may be. Who cares if a coin is technically mint state or not if it is the observable quality of a 64? Just call it a 64. Keep it simple.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
