What I am saying is both grades you mention would be measured objectively and both grades could be given. Then it's up to you, the buyer, to...
I wasn't doing a scam, but it was lost on you. And I'd say you haven't been around long enough if you didn't recognize it. Stay tuned, all will...
And technicalities can sink a person. Just admit it.
Didn't say I owned it, did I?
And that's why I am for technical grading based on measurable factors, such as luster (reflectivity), wear (surface preservation, and the amount...
This has got to be the most valuable coin I've found so far, and I'd like to get the opinion of the fine people here. Can you tell me if it's...
And so it goes. Another dispute over the grade of a coin. Wouldn't it be nice if we had some verifiable measures of such things as wear,...
I think computer analysis would do no grading at all. You can measure the reflectivity of a coin; that goes to luster. You can measure the wear...
I believe the comma should be after Freaks.
What do you like about a coin? Maybe you don't care about luster if wear is minimal. A few dings are okay, but what kind they are and how many...
Actually, eye appeal of a coin can partly be measured. Luster is a degree of reflectivity, and taken with measuring wear and die cracks and other...
And why not? To me, it indicates there really is very little agreement as to how a grade is determined. Would you say it doesn't bother you to...
I always pick the coin I like and so far have only bought raw coins. And I buy the coin, not the grade. What I'm proposing is a more objective...
I like this. Sounds like they are giving each element of the coin a separate grade, which I think should be done with moderns.
I don't have a problem with the TPGS, but I've seen many cases where the grade they give is challenged or people crack out a coin to get a better...
But wouldn't it be better for us if they gave a more realistic grade? It would be better for them, too, since more collectors would be willing to...
Here's another reason why I believe there should be a technical and separate subjective grade: toning, or most other distractions from the coin...
And this goes to my contention for two grades: one objective and technical, the other appearance and subjective. Your MS65 would have low marks...
And that is why I recommend an objective technical grade plus a subjective grade. Even if doing so hinders their existence, it gives us, the...
But giving an objective grade based on the wear and number of dings would allow us to get a better, verifiable picture of the coin. Then a...
Separate names with a comma.
