<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 1094009, member: 21705&quot;]I think it&#039;s a technical AU50 which is superior to most MS 60 to MS 63 coins. This is why the circulated coins need a condition grade like the MS have for 60-70. I know the TPGs often do this without ackowledging this is what they are doing. So I go with AU50 EAC and MS-63 TPG.</p><p><br /></p><p>But I&#039;m probably wrong. I don&#039;t really understand TPG grading.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know this ISN&#039;T how it&#039;s done, but grades below 60 should all include wear or abnormal condition problems. ALL MS grades should show NO WEAR with differences being condition. Conditon being everything other than wear in this broad context.</p><p><br /></p><p>To say that wear means it must be XF flies in the face of all definitions I&#039;ve seen. That doesn&#039;t mean it&#039;s not what&#039;s practiced though.</p><p><br /></p><p>On second thought, I&#039;ll just grade it $500.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
