[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1539239, member: 112"]Unfortunately, for you, every one of those things is true. And if you actually had any knowledge and experience, you would know that. Yeah I know, all I did was agree with you. And as I recall, until I told you that, you didn't even know it. Let's see, their grading book, page 47, right hand column, first paragraph - [I]"The element of grading is not just about the difference in AU58 and MS60 since there is slight or friction in grades [U][B]up to[/B][/U] MS67."[/I] In case you don't understand, "up to" means not above that. No Paul, they do it because collectors don't want to own AU coins, they want to own MS coins. So PCGS calls AU coins MS by using that excuse. Now, I proved to you that they contradict themselves, and yet you still want to believe them. Go figure :rolleyes: Wear is wear Paul, it doesn't matter where it comes from or how it got there, it is still wear. And by definition, if a coin has wear, then it is NOT MS. But you go right on ahead and believe what you want.[/QUOTE]
