I didn't read this whole thread just a few of the responses and I have to say I am a little saddened by some of them. I don't know how many times we have seen coins in PCGS/NGC/ANACS/PCI slabs that we didn't agree with the grade and someone has posted a link to ask if anyone agreed with them that the grading company made a mistake here and no one ever thought there was some kind of hidden motive behind the question, but as soon as a member does the same thing and it be with a Canadian grading company everyone gets offensive. I don't understand why. If you agree with the grade just state so and why, if you agree with the op that its graded incorrectly then also state so and move on. Please remember even if you do not like the way someone has answered a question in the past (not saying that is what is happening here) or if they have made a remark that hit you the wrong way in the past (again not saying that is what is happening here) Each and everyone of us are members here trying to gain more education in this hobby and help when we can for that purpose and deserves the respect from ALL other members just as you would want if it were you asking the question. If you can't do that then please just pass by the thread all together because we all know there are some with more knowledge in a particular field than others but no need to take anything personal when someone is trying to better themselves with knowledge by asking a question or to just get others opinions on a particular item

Now that I got the above taken care of I will post my thoughts on the question: Just as was said by a couple members if the coin is a MS coin then it doesn't really matter if it was scratched/corroded/bent or anything else it still remains a MS coin, it just now has problems. It would be the same if was sent to one of the grading companies in the US (except PCGS) where they would give it a grade on the condition on the coin, they would just call it a details grade and then make a note of the reason its not in a problem free slab (example UNC Details) ANACS would go a little further and if it were a MS-63 coin they would call it MS-63 Details and note the reason. I see nothing wrong with calling a coin Mint State even when it has problems as long as the problems are noted. There are plenty of cases where the grader must have been wearing sun glasses or had their eyes dilated the day some coins crossed their desk because their assessment is just plain wrong by calling some of the coins problem free or even their assessment of grade is totally wrong, but it does happen and allot more than most of us would like

Bryan - Your first post is well stated.
I accept that my "contribution" did nothing to further the conversation.
Thanks for the reminder.
