Penny 1858 No W.W. Peck 1518 UNC with practically full lustre and of stunning appearance thus, in an LCGS holder and graded LCGS 82. Although LCGS consider lustre, and mark down coins that have unsightly toning problems, they do not rate eye appeal as highly as the USA grading companies. The CGS system attaches more importance to wear, bag marks, hairlines etc, so coins with these problems that, owing to eye appeal may be hyped up by traditional retailers or graded higher in the US, will get a more conservative grade.
