[QUOTE="imrich, post: 3309684, member: 22331"]I'm sorry, but I'd suggest looking at the average CAC beaned coin to establish an acceptable coin for the average/+ appropriate TPG graded coin. I believe you'll find that the an average MS62 CAC green-beaned St. Gaudens will have better presentation than the posted MS63 1920. Please compare the following MS63 coin to the post. Look at the flame on the torch, the torch fingers/hand detail, bag marks, cartwheel luster, uniformity of fields and devices. You should be able to discern the difference in grading.
