<p>[QUOTE=&quot;iPen, post: 3184236, member: 69760&quot;]Here&#039;s one seller&#039;s coin I came across while browsing on eBay. Nothing wrong with what the seller is doing or selling - I&#039;m just pointing out the confusing grading standard used by NGC. To me, this one looks like it&#039;s a Details -Scratched coin that should be <i>at best</i> a Fine grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>So how is it a straight AU-50? It&#039;s because the planchet is a damaged coin but the strike is AU? I&#039;m not sure how they would even determined that, given how there appears to be a lot of wear on the high points of Columbus&#039; bust (just a weak strike? but it looks heavily worn and cleaned).</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/YngAAOSw6zNbjq3A/s-l1600.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
