[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 8650281, member: 20480"]Retained luster does not throw graders off. It is the default criteria a grader should resort to using when a coin was struck poorly or non-uniformly, as in this case. In addition to the retention of so much original mint luster, there are as many fully formed stars as flat ones, and the "A" in "STATES" is nearly absent despite mint luster around and within it. PCGS is mistaken, and you are the lucky beneficiary.[/QUOTE]
