<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 2264684, member: 19165&quot;]Your experience may vary - but the one thing that irks me most about Jefferson grading is something I&#039;ve mentioned many times before: A coin that isn&#039;t fully struck will exhibit a number of marks on the cheek and jaw. These marks are left over from the planchet, and weren&#039;t smoothed out by the strike. The TPGs completely ignore these, and will award very high grades even to coins showing these marks (your gorgeous &quot;67&quot; is a great example...). In my opinion, this planchet roughness should limit the grade to 65, or maybe 66 for an otherwise exception coin. In my opinion, this should not be allowed on a 67. Both TPGs will do this, and I strongly disagree with them. I&#039;ve had this same discussion with Lehigh as well. I still don&#039;t get it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
