I would say eye appeal is important, you can have a MS-66 coin that has distracting marks or bad uneven tone, and a MS-64 that has nice even wear or tone with good luster.

The graders have different opinions, even the pros can have a off day, if you send it to different TPG it can come back with different grade, can be a point or even two points off. Chances of being two points off is very slim.

But would the toning/marks make the coin a worse grade, or keep it form being a higher grade?

I just don't get what the toning or marks has to do with the grade.

If you're saying that the toning/marks makes the coin a lower grade than the details, isn't that a NET grade?
