ON MEDAL CONDITIONS

Regarding our discussion of Dick Johnson's suggested grading scheme
for medals, Ron Abler writes: "I still like "mint" for the top grade
of medals, whether produced at an official government mint or not.
According to Webster's, the adjectival meaning of "mint" is "unmarred
AS IF fresh from a mint," which is good enough for me.  I'll never
naysay humor in writing, nor would I presume to trade punch lines
with a wit like Don's."
