and you are justified to request that. re-reading the replies, I don't see once where mark asked for my observation and assessment to warrant the grade I op'd. It's all in the tone and simply asking, rather than ridicule anyone for just stating an opinion. I suggested the coin grades a high fine, and will concede to perhaps a borderline VF . He opinion-ed the coin was a no question VF or better. I'll still agree to disagree. I would not pay VF money for this coin. It's simply my opinion. Take any "raw" coin you purchased or sometimes even a TPG slabbed coin (sometimes) to a dealer and chances are they will have a differing opinion. Of course that hurts when such situations occur, especially when it's to your disadvantage when you paid say $130.00 and the dealer is only willing to give you a lower grade price.
