No, grading standards aren’t fluid, the “crackout game” is proof that subjectivity is inherent in the grading process.
Well, I’m a professional gambler by trade, so that kinda stuff doesn’t really bother me.
I like it, pretty golden toned beauty.
Yeah, I was considering submission of this coin as part of a larger submission (20 coins minimum). Submitting a coin individually is rather silly...
This coin is just like the previous 300 year old coin that I gave a 1.0 based on applying the Morgan Dollar scale. This coin is fantastic because...
I think the surfaces and luster are commensurate with an MS66 grade, the FBL designation is deserved, and there is nothing spectacular about the...
If a coin is undergraded, it doesn’t matter what series it is, and the only reason I brought up Jefferson Nickels is to explain why I don’t...
Some coins have frosty luster that beams off the coin and creates those magnificent cartwheels. Other coins have what is called a satin luster...
He has an alternative of submitting to CAC which I don’t have. I don’t have submission privileges to CAC and they don’t grade Jefferson Nickels...

It’s hard to answer your question because you haven’t divulged either the grade range or price range for you intended acquisition. Additionally,...
I consider you one of the more conservative graders on this forum, and even you had this graded higher than the TPG grade. My question for you...
It doesn’t need to go 66, MS65+ would be worth it. I’m stunned that this coin is in an MS64 holder. Unless @jtlee321 photos are so flattering...
Crack out & Resubmit!

So wait, you are saying that “barely toned” coins drive 2X premiums on a $500 price guide coin? That is patently absurd.
You need to have that coin graded by PCGS. That is MS66 FBL all day long with an excellent shot at MS67 FBL, luster dependent.
Nah, you bring it up cause your butt hurt about it. Which is all this argument is about. None of my scores are self contradictory and you know I...
Yes, I’m sending it to PCGS with my next submission.
Well, it’s basically worthless as an AT raw coin, I was thinking about using silver dip and hoping for the best. @ddddd thinks it might straight...
