Finding the light wear on gold can be hard. I remember in the grading class having difficulty spotting it.

Well I never went to any classes, but I've paid my tuition along the way just the same. No question about it, at least for me, grading gold coins in that high AU to low MS category is the toughest. According to PCGS, I've managed to be wrong on both sides of the equation a few times, but at first mine were alot like yours.

littlejohn

yes,it can be hard,when its real lite wear.
