[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 1540464, member: 15309"]I guess what you are asking is there any other series besides Saints where the TPG's use roll friction as a reason to grade a coin with wear MS. The answer is yes, and I would say that I have seen it most with Walking Liberty Halves, but there are other series as well, especially early US coinage. Can't blame a guy for trying to cash in on registry fever. FWIW, it wouldn't reside in an MS67 holder if it were graded by PCGS. Can't do it, I don't subscribe to the wear is wear philosophy. We can't expect them to have certainty, but we can expect them to use market acceptability just like they do with toned coins. Try disagreeing with him! Agreed! Well yeah, but they added copper to both gold and silver coins right?[/QUOTE]
