<p>[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 2755063, member: 46237"]I disagree with this. For classic gold, a 62 may be a very nice grade. Also, a 62 may be given to a 64/65 that has one small patch of light hairlines, but that coin may look like a gem without closer scrutiny. A 62 (or even a 61) may also be given to a very nice coin with cabinet rub that they think deserves a higher market grade than a 58.</p><p><br /></p><p>Generally I think of 62 as being nice but somewhat baggy, or a nicer coin with a minor issue. An MS61 may also be a nicer coin with a minor issue, but usually will just be excessively baggy. MS60 seems to be reserved for ugly but technically uncirculated coins. I think the two main reasons you don't see MS60s as much are that people don't submit coins that are that unattractive unless they are real rarities, or coins that might get an MS60 get UNC Details instead.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
