<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 2387198, member: 24314&quot;]This is a great post except for this statement above.&nbsp; In the older standards still used by many &quot;across the pond&quot;&nbsp; a coin with a very small amount of wear was graded EF.&nbsp; Decades ago, astute American dealers would &quot;pick-the-eyes-out&quot; of the foreign dealers (buy all their EF&#039;s) and get an immediate upgrade $$$$ to AU! </p><p><br /></p><p>Today, most have smartened up and adopted the US standard where an AU still has NOTICEABLE wear.&nbsp; And unfortunately, so do many coins graded MS-60 to 62![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
