[QUOTE="900fine, post: 802141, member: 6036"]I can understand your concern. That's a very reasonable question. Yes, you are right - to some degree it is guess work, and rational "Good Science" thinkers are often uncomfortable with that. But in this hobby, it's part Art, part Science. We do the best we can with what we have. Sometimes we have to extrapolate. Overall, I feel the 70 point system can be used with any coins, even ancients. One simply adapts the numbers and descriptors to the series at hand. And yes, each series has its own unique quirks.[/QUOTE]
