Hello @R.D. KNIGHT, thank you for contacting us. Do you mind kindly providing the certificate number of your coin so that we may do further research into the labeling description?

Thank you in advance!

You can read the following link to the NGC article regarding the shipwreck grading system. (A) is the top of the shipwreck level as far as grading terms for minimal surface corrosion and highest eye appeal.
