<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lonegunlawyer, post: 1596801, member: 40282&quot;]I agree that once you hit 65 in the grading process, luster is very important (probably most important at that point).&nbsp; But the scenario stated all coins received the same grade.&nbsp; At that point, if not before, a collector should look to strike, then dings and scratches before luster.</p><p><br /></p><p>With that said, this is all subjective.&nbsp; Some like toning and some don&#039;t.&nbsp; Some will sacrifice strike while some will sacrifice luster.&nbsp; I love luster, but if I had to choose, it comes in third place because over time if the coin is properly cared for, strike and any dings and scratches will not change whereas luster will change (it may be minute, it may be really noticeable).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
