<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Danr, post: 67262, member: 3715&quot;]Grade (especially unc grades) are really based on the aesthetics of the coin. Luster, bag-mark free surfaces, eye appeal, and strike are wonderful criteria to judge the real beauty of the coin. As for circ coins, the amount of wear may be overvalued as the sole criteria for grading problem free coins. other elements of the visual appeal of the coin should be given greater value. I really value beauty in my coin collection (slabbed and raw coins). Basically I buy coins that appeal to my sence of beauty and the slabs make me comfortable dropping a few bucks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
